Lifecycle

• Create a settings object instance for the build.
• Evaluate the settings.gradle script, if present, against the Settings object to configure it.
• Use the configured Settings object to create the hierarchy of Project instances.
• Finally, evaluate each Project by executing its build.gradle file, if present, against the project. The projects are evaluated in breadth-wise order, such that a project is evaluated before its child projects. This order can be overridden by calling evaluationDependsOnChildren() or by adding an explicit evaluation dependency using evaluationDependsOn(String).
