### Summary

In Gradle, all plugins share the same classpath. This makes it very hard, if not impossible, to use plugins which depend on different incompatible versions of the same library. This is the case with Spotless and [GitPublish](https://github.com/ajoberstar/gradle-git-publish):

1. Spotless [depends](https://github.com/diffplug/spotless/blob/5244a7e9d8958785b159bd8420f67e8ba36a91a3/lib-extra/build.gradle#L15) on 5.7.0.202003110725-r
2. GitPublish [depends](https://github.com/ajoberstar/grgit/blob/09e307a859033ca9591b3159672857a7b4709dde/grgit-core/build.gradle#L18) on the "latest release" version, which for the latest version of the plugin itself [is](https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.ajoberstar.grgit/grgit-core/4.0.1) 5.6.0.201912101111-r

Downgrading the JGit dependency in Spotless, I believe, is not an option, but maybe you could consider shading this dependency, building it into the Gradle plugin JAR file? I believe that the official Gradle guidelines [recommend](https://guides.gradle.org/designing-gradle-plugins/#minimizing_the_use_of_external_libraries) minimizing the number of external dependencies, and shading is one of the ways to mitigate issues like this one.

### Gradle version

Happens with any Gradle version, including the latest one, 6.4.1

### Spotless version

4.0.1

### Operating system and version

Probably not relevant, but macOS 10.15.3

### Spotless configuration

Having something as simple as

```kotlin
spotless {
scala {
scalafmt("2.3.2").configFile(layout.projectDirectory.file(".scalafmt.conf"))
}
}
```

in the build configuration will reproduce the issue,.

### Console errors

In all my test cases any Spotless tasks don't cause errors; exceptions can be observed when the GitPublish plugin is used, and they are generic class linkage errors which happen when binary incompatible libraries with the same class names are present in the one classpath.
