Run the command providing a directory to search but excluding a subdirectory.

./gradlew usage --dir ~/Projects --exclude-dir ~/Projects/asciidoctor-gradle-plugin

The report output will be as shown above but without the asciidocker-gradle-plugin project and the version of Gradle it uses.

The report may also return projects with a version of UNKNOWN or FAILED. The value UNKNOWN will be returned when a Gradle project doesn’t contain a gradle-wrapper.properties file. The value FAILED will be returned if the Gradle Connector throws an exception or if the version cannot be parsed from the gradle-wrapper.properties file.
