I am working with a project that has a `buildSrc` directory which I’ve cleaned up and no longer need right now, but i still see it being built on every ..build, I cannot seem to find the directive that is letting gradle know that it needs to do this, i would like to stop doing this, how can I?

If you don't need `buildSrc`, delete it.
Unlike included builds that are only built if needed, `buildSrc` is always built if out-of-date.

yes read that, ok, deleting from terminal did it, IntelliJ woudn’t allow it, thought there was some directive that enforced it

also if you're using Gradle 7, <https://docs.gradle.org/7.0/release-notes.html#ignore-empty-buildsrc-project|https://docs.gradle.org/7.0/release-notes.html#ignore-empty-buildsrc-project>
