Hi Bernhard,

I did not go deep in it but this could be related or similar:

-> https://github.com/pharo-vcs/iceberg#for-pharo-61

->��If you get a API rate limit exceeded error from github, like "Error accessing tags for github project: 'pharo-vcs/iceberg' -> 'API rate limit exceeded for...." then you can replace the metacello statement above with:
Metacello new
�� githubUser: 'pharo-vcs' project: 'Iceberg' commitish: 'v1.?' path: '';
�� baseline: 'Iceberg';
�� load.

regards

Sabine
