FileTree, by default, will save some metadata with the packages (method timestamps, package version history) and this, with git, creates conflicts when merging (and cherry picking and a few other operations). GitFileTree introduced a variant of the format, called metadata-less, to avoid that and recover the metadata from the git history itself (and convert it to Monticello). > > Right now, after committing in Monticello Browser, when I click 'refresh' > or > 'changes' everything shows up as new again.

In GitFileTree, it recovers all the versions with git log and rebuild them for the repository browser. It is done starting with MCFileTreeRepository>>#gitVersionsForPackage:, then MCFileTreeGitRepository>>#getVersionsForPackageDirectoryName:, tied with a specific class to register the data for all entries (GitFileTreePackageEntry -> other repositories uses only strings to track all the versions). In there you also see the bridge which converts from git log metatadata to Monticello metadata (MCVersion and ancestry). Side question then: is Iceberg factoring out some of that out of GitFileTree, since it supports/supported the libgit and GitFileTree backends? Factoring out could also be of benefit to Fossil.
