Gradle-property-induced CC invalidations have an unhelpful error message

[ZacSweers]

Expected Behavior

I would expect it to tell me which properties have changes so I can diagnose the cause

Current Behavior

The message just says that "the set of properties" changed, with no indication of which

Calculating task graph as configuration cache cannot be reused because the set of Gradle properties has changed.

Context (optional)

A major issue with gradle is vague or opaque error messages that only indicate something is wrong but not enough context to be actionable. This is one example.

Steps to Reproduce

Change a gradle property used as an input during a build with CC enabled

Gradle version

8.2-rc-2

Build scan URL (optional)

Two canned responses on the same issue 9 months apart feels like a sign that I should just close this.
