Hard topic. I'm taking benefit of my gf's windows computer right now to
test. Basically, windows has problems with long paths but there are
workarounds. Icerberg works by default without any changes (same bugs as in
linux and osx at least :)). Here are my notes to make it work:

* Download latest pharo:
  - http://files.pharo.org/image/70/latest-32.zip
  - http://files.pharo.org/vm/pharo-spur32/win/stable-20170720.zip

* Clone using sourcetree
   This is very slow and failed to checkout (not clone) because of the
"Filename too long errors"


What does "clone using sourcetree" mean?



I found for this the following workaround: http://pingec.si/blog/
articles/msysgit-longpath/

Once I did that, sourcetree worked nicely, and I could commit and change
branches using iceberg.

Warning: I did not test making changes on the "long files" to see what
happens...

I'll make another writeup about the entire process.

And about this one too

Well, actually right now

SystemVersion current

has the hash of the commit the image was generated from if you check the
inspector. It's then a UI problem and easy to fix. Maybe somebody could use
this to try making a pull request?

Then, we could add a build number in SystemVersion of course.
