Determining why your APK size changed can be challenging. I would like AGP to automatically pass a -printconfiguration flag to output the canonical ProGuard/R8 configuration in the mapping directory along with the other useful files like usage.txt, mapping.txt, and seeds.txt. This would allow capturing of this file and diffing it to detect changes to rules.

I don't see any downsides to having this behavior by default. Soren, do you agree?

Agree.

As far as I remember we have discussed this before, but there where some concerns that writing additional files could make builds slower. However I don't think this will be measurable for an R8 build.
