maven-publish integration in multi-module project

[geoHeil]

I have a multi modue project in gradle.

Ideally, I want to apply the changelog plugin only once - to prevent: diffplug/spotless-changelog#24

But if I do this, the maven-publish task fails and only sets a version of undefined.

However, if I apply changelog to all projects the maven-publish task works nicely, but I can no longer execute the version bump task.
The workaround suggested here: diffplug/spotless-changelog#25 respectively

spotless/gradle/changelog.gradle

Lines 1 to 22 in 58e53b6

	String kind
	if (project.name == 'plugin-gradle') {
	kind = 'gradle'
	} else if (project.name == 'plugin-maven') {
	kind = 'maven'
	} else if (project.name.startsWith('eclipse')) {
	kind = 'ext-' + project.name
	} else {
	assert project == rootProject
	kind = 'lib'
	}
	// the root project and plugins have their own changelogs
	apply plugin: 'com.diffplug.spotless-changelog'
	spotlessChangelog {
	changelogFile 'CHANGES.md'
	// need -Prelease=true in order to do a publish
	appendDashSnapshotUnless_dashPrelease=true
	tagPrefix "${kind}/"
	commitMessage "Published ${kind}/{{version}}" // {{version}} will be replaced
	}

is not what I want. Rather a single changelog for the overall modules in the project i.e. single application.

How can this be achieved?
