Hi Sven,
thanks. Did not notice that I need three instead of two slashes. So no need
to explicitly convert to ZnUrl.
So for the records this is what works:
pathToPackageDirectory := 'C:\ClonedRepo\packages'.
Metacello new
baseline: 'MyProject';
repository: ('gitfiletree:///', pathToPackageDirectory) ;
load.
Thanks
T.
