Ok, cool.
Now, would you leave the changes chunk format?
yes and it is orthogonal. Even if I want a better chunk format. We want a model for changes and a model for source code. And two separated tools.
Example: in Amber, one can take such a thing and paste it in the workspace and file it in. This helps with importing code from elsewhere.
And also with other Smalltalks... http://www.mimuw.edu.pl/~sl/teaching/00_01/Delfin_EC/Overviews/ChunkFileForm...

Martin (one of the guy behind fuel) is working on a **good** changes management because we do not like all the changes code which is old and sometimes brittle. We will have a look at your issues and see what we can do. But what is sure is that we are working on replacing all the changeset, recovery and all the rest :).

The interesting bit is that the crash I got occured **as I was saving to STH**... https://pharo.fogbugz.com/default.asp?10859#78993
Then Cami told me to drag & drop my .changes file inside my image to recover the changes.
Since was I was doing was not coding but commenting, comments were lost (and getting into a deadly loop as well - https://pharo.fogbugz.com/default.asp?10860#78992)
Then looking at the Change fileIn, I noticed that thing about comments not being taken into account: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/default.asp?10861#78994
So, I try to work the advertised way, I guess.
But things is that a lot of things have the power to destroy my image it seems. That's why I do have a ton of large files in my working folder named like xxxx-YYYYMMDD-HHMM.image|changes
Still, I got burned.
As of the old code hard to understand, sure, I got lost :-) If I would understand what to do, instead of bugging you I'd be submitting a slice.
Let's end this thread :-)

Look, I got the point about mixing up issues.
Thanks for bother to reply BTW, it is appreciated.
As for
10861 System not filing in class comments from changes file. https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/10861/System-not-filing-in-class-comments-...
yes, this seems to be not filing in class comment from the recent changes.
I think that nobody complained because it is not used that often and mostly with relatively small changes People save on SmalltalkHub very often, or saving the image before doing something that can destroy it.
And comments tend to be written at anther times then code that has the power to destroy you image.
Yes, we should fix it. And yes, the code related to all this is quite old-style smalltalk that is hard to understand.
