cannot patch .gradle file

[vladp]

Trying to patch a gradle script (which is part of an npm package)

I tried yarn patch-package @react-native-community/cli

and yarn patch-package --include ./node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android/native_modules.gradle @react-native-community/cli

The error I get is:

$ /home/v/myproj/FRONTEND/rn.common/node_modules/.bin/patch-package --include ./node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android/native_modules.gradle @react-native-community/cli
patch-package 6.2.2

but the change is there, as I modified ./node_modules/@react-native-community/cli-platform-android/native_modules.gradle

@ds300 hi, does this support changes other than .js or .ts files?
