没有核心任务会告诉你哪个插件负责哪个任务。您可以通过运行以下命令查看所有可用的任务：
gradle tasks
然而，日志中有一些提示。如果使用--debug开关运行构建，您可以看到在解决插件依赖关系后注册的任务：

10:20:25.847 [DEBUG] [org.gradle.api.internal.artifacts.ivyservice.ivyresolve.CachingModuleComponentRepository] Found artifact 'gradle-release.jar (net.researchgate:gradle-release:2.3.5)' in resolver cache: C:\g\caches\modules-2\files-2.1\net.researchgate\gradle-release\2.3.5\8045af5040f3efa88abbc5879fd51cf1634a2536\gradle-release-2.3.5.jar

10:20:26.128 [DEBUG] [org.gradle.model.internal.registry.DefaultModelRegistry] Project : - Registering model element 'tasks.afterReleaseBuild' (hidden = false)

这将告诉你这个插件（gradle release）依赖注册的任务。

您可以打印每个插件和每个任务的类名，希望包能给予您一个提示
例如：

task printStuff {
    doLast {
        plugins.all { Plugin plugin ->
            println "Plugin: ${plugin.class.name}"
        }
        tasks.all { Task task ->
            println "Task: ${task.class.name} (name=${task.name})"
        }
    }
}

我在根文件夹build.gradle中临时添加了以下代码：
这是针对名为lint的任务。你可以适应任何其他任务。

allprojects { project ->
    beforeEvaluate {
        tasks.whenTaskAdded {
            if (it.name == "lint") {
                println("++++++++ Task added, project: $project, class: ${it.class.name}")
            }
        }
    }
}

然后我就跑：

$ ./gradlew -q tasks

并且它打印出关于lint任务的信息，它们定义了哪些项目以及哪个是实现类名。从类名中我通常可以知道哪个插件定义了这个任务。
