It looks like you've already grasped package management. The next level up in project management is Metacello, which let's you declare the dependency relationships between packages and outside projects. For git repos, one creates a BaselineOf instead of the old ConfigurationOf. The difference between a baseline and a config is that the latter needs to have additional metadata because for example, the config itself could be hosted anywhere (e.g. in a different repo than the project), and it also needs to specify which package/dependency versions make up a particular version of your project. For git, the baseline relies on some assumptions to eliminate some declarations. For example, the baseline gets committed right with the rest of the project. Thus, if you have the baseline, you already know the repo, so that is omitted. Also, since git defines a snapshot of package versions via a particular commit, so you don't need that additional version info. ATM, you might still create a ConfigurationOf for integration with some tools, so for example, your project could appear and be loadable via the Project Catalog tool. But the configuration would be a thin wrapper which probably just delegates by declaring a baseline from a particular commit. Also, it would be good to provide an obvious access point to open the tool. `FocusFrogMainModel new openWithSpec` is a basic snippet that does the trick. You might want to document that with a class-side method (if you tag it with <script> it will be run-able from the code browser UI) and/or make it available from the World Menu. Lastly, when I tried to open the tool, I got errors because the icons were not initialized properly. HTH! ----- Cheers, Sean -- Sent from: http://forum.world.st/Pharo-Smalltalk-Users-f1310670.html
