Hi Sean - that is an excellent reply, I didn’t quite get your fu to work - but
if you look up how to find deleted classes in git they give the following:
git log --diff-filter=D --summary
This gives you a git list of checkins and shows you the checkin comment, along
with the list of files that were deleted (this is using tonel format, so its
quite clear).
A bit more man help gives a better:
git log --diff-filter=D --summary --pretty='format:%cd|%h|%cn%n%s%n’
Which will output something a bit more like what I think you have to use to
then understand how to find your change (the %h is the short hash with the
Repository explorer in the new Iceberg shows). So you then get something like
this:
Mon Jun 11 01:33:59 2018 +0100|65363ad|Tim Mackinnon
Refactor to a more consistent design with support for a basic link resolver
delete mode 100644 src/PrismicDemo/PrismicBlock.class.st
delete mode 100644 src/PrismicDemo/PrismicSpan.class.st
delete mode 100644 src/PrismicDemo/PrismicSpannedText.class.st
delete mode 100644 src/PrismicDemo/PrismicTextSpan.class.st
Wed Jun 6 19:05:07 2018 +0100|4bea74d|macta
Better handling of more data types for improved demo
delete mode 100644 src/PrismicDemo/Text.extension.st
This does highlight a few more thing though (and possibly future things to
implement) - there is no search in the Repository list, so you have to scroll
down yourself.
Having found the class of interest - if I want to restore it, you are a bit on
your own here too, as I think the “Revert Change” menu option (regardless of
where you click) is going to try and recover the whole checkin and not let you
cherry pick the class you want. You can of course at least see the source in
the middle pane, and copy paste each method (but it could be a bit tedious).
Possibly you might then be able to do this:
git checkout 65363ad src/PrismicDemo/PrismicBlock.class.st
I’m not sure how Pharo will then react to this command line jiggery - as I keep
getting an error : error: pathspec 'PrismicDemo/PrismicBlock.class.st' did not
match any file(s) known to git.
But I suspect its something like that?
