Here's the documentation for the Metacello github:// repository
description[1]. ...
In recent versions of Metacello I have made it possible for you to use
pattern matching in the <version identifier> to provide for
symbolic-version-like facility for github references.
Instead of stableForPharo4 you would associate a semantic version with
the code that is "stableForPharo4" for example `4.0.0` and use the tag
`v4.0.0` to mark the commit that is "stableForPharo4".
Similarly you'd use the tag `v5.0.0` to mark the commit that is
"stableForPharo5".
Then you'd use the following in your baseline: method (not in a
symbolicVersion method).
spec for: #'pharo4.0.x'
do: [spec
baseline: 'Project'
with: [ spec repository: 'github://username/Project:v4.?/']].
spec for: #'pharo5.0.x'
do: [spec
baseline: 'Project'
with: [ spec repository: 'github://username/Project:v5.?/']].
If you end up with a new commit that patches a Pharo4 problem, you'd tag
that commit as `v4.0.1` and so on .... The above `v4.?` pattern will
match `v4.0.1` and you'll pick up that tag the next time you refresh
your build (i.e., do a `get` on the Project baseline ... which causes a
new download from Github) ...
HTH,

I was wondering if something like this can work:
Given a ConfigurationOfProject (a subclass of ConfigurationOf) defining:
stable: spec <symbolicVersion: #stable> spec for: #'pharo4.0.x' do:
[spec baseline: 'Project' with: [ spec repository:
'github://username/Project:stableForPharo4/']]. spec for:
#'pharo5.0.x' do: [spec baseline: 'Project'with: [ spec repository:
'github://username/Project:stableForPharo5/']].
where stableForPharo4 and stableForPharo5 are tags in the git repo
(and assuming the BaselineOfProject is defined in this commits). Is
this supposed to work :
Metacello new
configuration: 'Project';
repository: 'github://username/Project:master';
version: #stable;
load.??
I've tried using a non-symbolic version and it works but I can't make
it work for #stable. I'd like to use this configuration for the
Configuration Browser/Catalog Browser.
Any help is appreciated.
