Gradle release-candidate is shown regardless of exclusion rules

I have Gradle wrapper version 5.4.1 defined and your plugin v0.21.0 applied in a project of mine. I also have the latest resolutionStrategy snippet from your README.md applied in order to filter out release candidates of certain dependencies. When I execute the Gradle dependencyUpdates task I however see the following:

Gradle release-candidate updates:
 - Gradle: [5.4.1 -> 5.5-rc-1]

I would have expected that 5.5-rc-1 is hidden. Is this a special handling for Gradle dependencies or is this a configuration error for the exclude rules?

Thanks! For completeness … and because I did realized the -D vs. -P:

./gradlew -DgradleReleaseChannel=current dependencyUpdates

… works fine.

dependenyUpdates.gradleReleaseChannel = “current” Or -DgradleReleaseChannel=current

./gradlew -PgradleReleaseChannel=‘current’ dependencyUpdates has no effect. Can you please provide the exact command?
