Hi Sven, thanks. Did not notice that I need three instead of two slashes. So no need to explicitly convert to ZnUrl. So for the records this is what works: pathToPackageDirectory := 'C:\ClonedRepo\packages'. Metacello new baseline: 'MyProject'; repository: ('gitfiletree:///', pathToPackageDirectory) ; load. Thanks T.

Hi Torsten,
Just for the ZnUrl part, have a look at
ZnFileUrlTests>>#testWindowsDriveNamesInFileUrl
AFAIK, your example should be written as:
('filetree:///' , 'C:/ClonedRepo/packages') asZnUrl.
Or maybe,
(FileLocator C / 'ClonedRepo' / 'packages') asZnUrl.

Hi,
according to the Metacello quide on [1] in section "Prime Metacello registry" one can write
| pathToPackageDirectory | "edit to match the path to your chosen package directory" pathToPackageDirectory := '/opt/git/Sample/packages'. Metacello new baseline: 'Sample'; repository: 'filetree://', pathToPackageDirectory; load.
Adopting this for a Windows path I have:
| pathToPackageDirectory | pathToPackageDirectory := 'C:\ClonedRepo\packages'. Metacello new baseline: 'MyProject'; repository: 'filetree://', pathToPackageDirectory; load.
But I get a ZnPortNotANumber exception, even when I use a diffent protocol like "client://". Tried this in Pharo 6.0 Latest update: #60233
What I want to do (on Windows) is to load all project packages from a local cloned git directory (not a remote GitHub) using the dependencies given in the Baseline.
Did I miss something, is it just broken or the docu not up to date? If so is this a parsing issue on the Zinc URLs or an issue of Metacello API?
Thanks T.
