minimize() duplicates all entries

[Clipi-12]

Expected and Results

Calling minimize() shouldn't trigger an error/warning when duplicatesStrategy is changed from the default

Related environent and versions

gradle wrapper 8.7, but I tested similar projects with gradle 8.8, 8.9, and 8.10 plugin version 8.3.0, but I tested similar projects with versions 8.1.0 and 8.1.1 from the johnrengelman plugin KotlinDSL tested with java 8, 17, and 21 Win10 22H2 19045.4780

Reproduction steps

• In a blank hello-world-project, call minimize() when configuring shadowJar
• setting duplicatesStrategy = DuplicatesStrategy.FAIL and calling shadowJar will fail the build (saying that MANIFEST.MF has already been copied)
• setting duplicatesStrategy = DuplicatesStrategy.EXCLUDE and calling shadowJar will make an empty jar (or rather a jar with a single entry foo/bar/, with no files inside)
• setting duplicatesStrategy = DuplicatesStrategy.WARN and calling shadowJar will trigger warnings for each class and jar

Anything else?

plugins {
    java
    id("com.gradleup.shadow") version "8.3.0"

version = "1.0-SNAPSHOT"

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    // Sample dependency, it is not a guava thing. It even fails without dependencies
    implementation("com.google.guava:guava:33.3.0-jre")
}

tasks.shadowJar {
    minimize()
    duplicatesStrategy = DuplicatesStrategy.WARN
}
