Reading Gradle build parameters

I have a Gradle project with subprojects that I can issue separate build commands if I don't want to build all the subprojects at once. For example, 

parent
  subprojectA
  subprojectB
  subprojectC

I can then issue commands like ./gradlew :subprojectA:assemble :subprojectC:assemble. What I like to do is construct a meaning git tag from each subproject group and version values for those subprojects that are being built, i.e., group and version for only subprojectA and subprojectC in this case. I am thinking of writing a standalone plugin to do this but unsure where / how to get this information at build time. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Both group and version (as well as any other project property) is available globally in your build script.

task myTask << {
    println group + "-" + version
}

If you are writing a binary plugin you can also access properties off the Project object itself via the property() method.

def group = project.property('group')

Edit

If you want to determine if a particular project is being built you can inspect the TaskExecutionGraph.

gradle.taskGraph.whenReady { graph ->
    if (graph.hasTask(':subprojectA:assemble')) {
        println 'Will build subprojectA'
    }
}
