what's the right way of connecting external module...

# gradle

what's the right way of connecting external module, in case I want to link a module from a different project?
I'm quite satisfied with this:

include ':commons'
project(':commons').projectDir = new File(settingsDir, "../commons-android/commons")

but that means that all the project specific configuration from commons-android becomes invalid, because we import the module, and not the whole project
