FYI: a Kotlin version of the code snippet of @copitz:

tasks.register<Task>(name = "resolveDependencies") {
    group = "Build Setup"
    description = "Resolve and prefetch dependencies"
    doLast {
        rootProject.allprojects.forEach {
            it.buildscript.configurations.filter(Configuration::isCanBeResolved).forEach { it.resolve() }
            it.configurations.filter(Configuration::isCanBeResolved).forEach { it.resolve() }
        }
    }
}
