Fails if git base directory is not the same as android base folder project

[otusweb]

I'm working on a react native project so my file structure is as follow:

- ios
- android/
    app/
         build.gradle

In the script I set gradle_file_folder to app
while in the android directory => fastlane beta

Result:
I get this error:

Found unexpected uncommited changes in the working directory. Expected these files to have
changed:
app/build.gradle.
But found these actual changes:
android/app/build.gradle.
Make sure you have cleaned up the build artifacts and
are only left with the changed version files at this stage in your lane, and don't touch the
working directory while your lane is running. You can also use the :force option to bypass this
check, and always commit a version bump regardless of the state of the working directory.

I have the same error. Makes this plugin unusable if user is making apps with React Native like us.

This is not only an issue for React Native projects. We build native apps and use a similar file structure where the git repo's base directory is one level above the Android project folder. I am getting the same error and the only way I see around it is to change our file structure...

I´m working with fastlane and CircleCi and have the same Problem....any ideas what we could do, except changing the file structure?

For anyone else landing here with the same issue, using app_folder_name instead of gradle_file_folder seems to do the trick.

commit_android_version_bump(
  # gradle_file_folder:"app"
  app_folder_name: "app"
)

Works like a charm. Thanks @AlanLayt!
