ChangeLog ========= 15 June 2017: ------------- * I finished an iteration for allowing cherry-pick into [iceberg](http://github.com/pharo-vcs/iceberg). Now, I just need to make it work on 64bits and we will be ready-to-go for releasing it :) 13 June 2017: ------------- * Still "iceberging", I fixed an annoying bug when browsing diff with parent (in all screens that have it), who was trowing a DNU because of course, first commits do not have a parent to compare with. * I've been working on iceberg 0.5. It will incorporate some needed features (to make it appropriate to work on pharo itself, and better for users). This was also my work last week, but I forget to announce it here ;) So far, I added following features: === Better diff handling It was very naive because it was comparing always all present packages which does not scales on large repositories. Now, I implemented a double dispatch that works in different scenarios: * commit -> commit: It relies in libgit2 to take the list of changed packages. * commit -> branch: it takes last commit on branch on continues as commit->commit scenario * loaded code -> commit: this is the most complicated scenario. It compares what is in image with what is in commit to take a correct diff. With this, now diffs are performant in all cases (bah, if you have a commit that changes 300 packages, you will suffer anyway, but I would argue that is not a very good codign practice) Also with this you will finally be able to add not-dirty packages to your repo and commit them :) === Branch sync with disk copy I had a discussion with author of Iceberg (Nico) on this: originally he weanted to treat loaded code in the image as a got working-copy itself, so he was taking the information of the branch and keepong it. Problem with this is, if you change the repository branch (in command line or another image) and then go back to your current image, you do not have any feedback... and that is severely confusing. So now I'm just taking the information from git repository. That means you can have differences between what you loaded and your current branch, but that's, IMO, perfectly reasonable (you can always switch back or merge or whatever you need to do) === Other * Minor cleanups * Other bugfixes cheers!
