I’m finding 7.0.3 to be more stable.
How do I load a specific baseline/version with Iceberg? I’m getting 8.0 by
default from the cloned local repo, and I prefer not to merge 7.0.3 with 8.0.
There are many differences. I want to commit my image changes locally for now
on a 7.0.3.
Its not completely clear what you want.
You can right-click a repo > Metacello > Install baseline of.....
Or right-click a repo > Repository > Remotes
and select one of those branches to check out.
I missed the Repository item completely, all this time. I think I was blocking
it out mentally because I was already in an Iceberg window that lists repos.
The doubling up is confusing and unexpected. So we have Iceberg repos
wrapping Git repos? I’m not sure I have the scheme right.
Why don’t we have the usual wait-cursors appearing on long synchronous actions
behind button clicks? These lock up the system for 1 or 2 minutes often. For
example, I deleted 20-odd packages the other day and waited 2 minutes for it to
finish, wondering why the system was completely unresponsive and showing no
indication (no histo; no wait cursor). This happens when cloning a Git repo,
too. The histo opens about ½ second before the about 1-m pull finishes. This
happened in the 7.0.3 build. Is there a policy not to use a wait-cursor if not
histo is shown?
