[jira] [Comment Edited] (GROOVY-12009) StringGroovyMethods#stripIndent(boolean) doesn't handle non-String cases as advertised

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GROOVY-12009?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=18081025#comment-18081025 ]

-------------------------------------------------------------

This was a bug, so folks should have been wary about relying on the broken behavior. But listing it as breaking to give extra visibility for folks upgrading to Groovy 6. It only breaks for {{someGString.stripIndent(false)}} which was supposed to give Java behavior but instead kept Groovy behavior.

The method was labelled @Incubating and I was visiting it thinking it had been stable for a while and could leave incubating status but given the discovered edge case, it is now fixed but should remain incubating for another version cycle.
