Frustration is a good thing. Especially as a strong motivation factor :-D All Smalltalk is nice but I doubt Freetype and Cairo are very Smalltalkish. And Git itself is quite a couple a moving parts on the client side. That kind of argument is moot. As long as you are able to make it run properly, and it is useful, why not becoming our Git-hero ? :-p 2012/7/4 Camillo Bruni <camillobruni@gmail.com>

we are not ready and we do not want to rush.
you're kidding me... FS-Git is out there since 2 damn years!
- I did a 1 week sprint to improve the performance on it and fix some bugs - I wrote in 1 day a tiny wrapper around it so a git repos can be directly used with MC
=> So I recycle 100% of the UI AKA being backwards compatible from MC VersionInfo on
Captain Hindsight speeking:
If we'd invested the time gone into Smalltalk into that project we would already be done!
But somebody had to push that smalltalkhub thing right?
I remember I already had a hard fight here on the mailing list in favor of git. So I am particularly frustrated.

Or like any other service that is also used by non smalltalkers!
It's incredible how much effort goes into improving something like Monticello, where there are stable wide spread solutions out there that work since years.
- We have an alpha implementation of FS-Git - We have a quite stable implementation of Filetree - We have a quite stable implementation of Cypress
I really like Smalltalkhub, but if we could focus such an effort on these 3 tools here, we can have a nice solution that outperforms MC in **EVERY** aspect.
I do not have much time on my side right now, but I am working towards a fully git based solution in pharo, and everybody else should too.
