Commit 7d6ac8703378cfd58b175de8483a2bf26242f799 in cordova-android's branch
refs/heads/master from [~iclelland]

CB-3445: Add option to build and install with gradle
This gives build/cordova two new command-line arguments: --ant and
--gradle, and will select the build type from those. As a fallback
for the Cordova CLI, the environment variable ANDROID_BUILD can also be
used, set to either "ant" or "gradle".
The default is currently "ant", but it is intended for this to change in
the future.
> Move Cordova-Android Build Setup to Gradle
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CB-3445
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3445
> Project: Apache Cordova
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Android
> Reporter: Joe Bowser
> Assignee: Ian Clelland
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently we're using ant for our setup, and our setup can break every time
> that the Android SDK updates and change its build.xml. However, the Android
> Team has created Gradle to be more robust such that it doesn't have the same
> problems as ant-based scripts.
> This also has the advantage of using Android Studio for development instead
> of Eclipse, and the ability for us to bundle resources, which is something we
> haven't been able to do before.
> Moving to Gradle has numerous advantages, but will break scripts, so this is
> to be moved in the post-3.0 timeframe.
