Do we have a documentation about the format of - class definitions - methods - class comments for the changes file ?
Google "specification of smalltalk chunk format" and you will see: Overviews: Chunk File Format <https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact...> Smalltalk Interchange Format - Draft Smalltalk Standard v1.9 <https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact...> The Smalltalk fileOut format - 1 <https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=3&cad=rja&uact...> and more.
I am asking because some entries are using two separator "! !" and some only one "!"
Indeed. It's in the spec. ! ! ends a run of methods in the same protocol. ! ends a method or a doit, etc. Read the spec.
And we have a problem with the "Recover lost changes" browser (https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/16498/unrecoverable-changes) and I am not sure if this is a bug on the code importer or if it is a bug on how we write changes to the changes file.
