Yes and no.
If git compares two versions, it does not understand what is in it.
When Monticello compares versions, it knows about classes, methods, inheritance,
it can explain diffs in the same structured (browsable) form that you wrote them.
Putting Smalltalk in plain text files can be done, has been done, and was not successful, because you lose something essential by leaving the environment.
The island argument is also a bit too easy: any platform can be seen as an island that needs to integrate with others, there are degrees of openness. Your Blender or Python are islands too, just like SAP, Microsoft and Oracle. Some connections/interfaces are easy, some are hard(er). It all depends on your position.
When have you last looked at the source code of git ?
And be honest, do you find git always easy to use ?

Obviously it will better fit Pharo since its made to work with smalltalk
code, but that does not make it any less terrible. Just because you have
one implementation of something that does not mean its good. Its just means
its there and it works.
I dont know the internal, they are not documented anyway, there are some
class comments here and there but thats pretty much it. I dont even
remember when was the last time monticello got an updated, I mean a serious
update not just a couple of bug fixes the 2 years I have been around.
Secondly GUI is just plain awful, Smalltalk maybe be the first or one of
the first to implement guis, but those implementations never ended up to
something that would be approachable and easy to use on a day to day basis,
some tools suffer more from this some less, Monticello is up there with the
worse design.
Thirdly the inability of the system to version control images , audio files
and other assets it defeats the central purpose of smalltalk of everything
being objects with a loud "Nope !" from Monticello "Only source code is".
So its awesome that Smalltalk , and Squeak got its own version control
system, that is easy to use and Pharo inherited it. Congratulations to
people behind it. But the GUI needs to go, its a bad advertisement to
Pharo, and we need something that is not stuck to dark ages as you
correctly pointed but for the opposite reason. Because any way you try to
turn Monticello you wont find a label written "modern" on it. The label you
may find on it is more like "abandonware".
Also there like a ton of OOP languages out there using git with no major
problems, the problem with smalltalk is that smalltalk is an island.
And the problem with islands is when you end having fun with them you feel
stuck since they dont provide an easy access to the outside world.
"Git just manages blobs, text files at best. Dead text"
Last time I checked Monticello used a format called mcz which is nothing
more than a zip file containing st files, which are as you call it "dead
text" files. Also I would like to remind you that git is used by the CUIS
smalltalk to version control their images, I thought images are live code.
Personally I dont see the diffirence between live and dead text. Its just
text to me. The VM is the one that makes it live anyway.

No it is not. It is a version management system that understands our object and code model, a system that we control. Git just manages blobs, text files at best. Dead text.

To be fair my experience with pharo and git have been not always smooth
either. I have the VM crashing again and again completely randomly when it
was trying to pull SmaCC as dependency for my project Ephestos, had to drop
SmaCC and moving my python type parsing at python side.
But I find it ironic someone using Monticello, trying to equate git with
dark ages, you cant get more dark ages than monticello, frankly. No offense

Re: [Pharo-users] Pharo + git workflow
by Dimitris Chloupis
"You are telling me I should watch the video but I got the impression you
didn't read any of this thread before replying ;) Your video is not about
the problems I have. It is a beginner video how to use pharo and git
together and that's fine. I'm glad you did it.
I'm after a workflow that can be used as developer as well as in a
continuous integration server without introducing to many side effects.
thanks,
Norbert"
The problem is that both of your problems are not directly related to git,
Configurations and CI. Somewhate related yes but not directly.
Configurations are not that related because git and github are more than
capable into creating their own versions and their own releases and thank
you for touching this subject because i want to mention it in my future
video tutorial on pharo git. Git has several ways of doing this , git tags
or branches, while github adds releases also to that. The nice thing about
git and github is that it allow you to included also external assets, like
images, sounds, pdf, database files , any kind of file into your repo. But
you can also keep files outside the repo and still make github releases
with them, since github releases can contain external assets that do not
belong to the repo together with the repo in a single ZIP file. So this is
why we use Baseline and not Configurations when we work with git.
You will be correct to note that my video tutorial does not touch that part
and that is more begineer orientated, but then that is easy for me to
explain on a future video tutorial.
CI is another tool altgother, git is for version control, CI is for project
automatic packaging. It allow you to pull a repo from a git or any other
kind of repo and run some tests on it and then build it or do all sort of
stuff on it before packaging together. Its a whole another chapter on
itself and a whole new set of video tutorials and my video wont help you
there, because CI is not related to git and if I made a video tutorial how
to use pharo + git with CI , it would have been a CI video tutorial and NOT
a pharo+git tutorial.
"
I do not agree on that point.
Myself and a lot of my friends use text documentation way more than videos.
Maybe you see more video documentation because you work in visual
stuff/3D. Graphical artists are more incline to use visual documentation
as video."
Definitely not the reason. I don't disagree with you that most people would
prefer to have text documentation to video documentation.
The nice thing about text documentation is easier to seek through and find
what you want. But documentation is not dictated by its users but rather
its creators. Video tutorial are far , far , far easier to make. Thus why
they have exploded in popularity.
To give you an example, lately I am learning C++ and looking into a
specific kind of IPC. IPC has nothing to do with 3d graphics its Inter
Process Communication, its what I use to make pharo talk to python with
sockets.
Now I am investigating the fastest form of IPC, shared memory and the most
popular implementation of shared memory, memory mapped files. Its just a
file that is uploaded to a part of the memory that then can be shared among
diffirent applications (processes) and you dont have to move data around
like you do with sockets and of course its a million times faster since its
just direct memory manipulation with pointers.
I wont even begin to describe my surprise about lack of documentation ,
text documentation about such a basic subject. Examples I found were mostly
C and Linux and I was searching C++ and Macos. I go youtube, BOOM! tons of
tutorials most of them the past year or two compared to very dated text
documentation (my best bet are blog posts for up to date info).
Messing around youtube with shared memory I found OpenMP shared memory, no
idea what that was, I use google to search what the hell that is, reading
website description about parrelism , makes a bit sense, but I want to know
more, trying to find documentation same website recommend me to go back to
YouTube to watch video tutorial by one of the dudes that made OpenMP. I
have read text docs about threads in the past with python , the irony is
that his video tutorial even though in C and using far more complex
concepts are much easier to understand follow. And this is no small
library made by a random guy this freaking Intel and OpenMP is probably the
most popular library for multi threading currently and parrarely
programming.
I can go on, C++ 11 docs , youtube wins hands down, QT docs, youtube winds
hands down , pretty much any python library you can imagine , youtube wins
hands down.
Even I , prefer text documentation to video tutorials . I downloaded the
OpenMP pdf spec as I have pdfs for many libraries , QT , python etc. But I
am forced to use YouTube more and more because hands down is by far the
best resource of modern documentation, there is no comparison. And as
documentation creator I have to confess I prefer making video tutorials 10
times more than writting text because, well I am lazy and its just way way
way easier.

Unfortunately. This is the biggest drag for me after switching all my
personal projects to git (GitHub for public and BitBucket for private). I
had gotten spoiled by Versionner and hand-editing MetaC artifacts feels like

Maybe you see more video documentation because you work in visual
stuff/3D. Graphical artists are more incline to use visual documentation
as video.
But in general, most of the people I know check a video to get a global
view of something then use textual documentation when they really want
to learn. And I think this is better to learn because you can go with
your own rhythm. But with a video it's harder. The rhythm is imposed.

I don't really believe the text documentation is dying because I haven't seen a replacement for it. Even if it is dying I could decline that and prefer text documentation, no? :)

So there is not even a comparison between the quantity and quality of video tutorials compared to text tutorial which we see a very steady decline. Even University who have taken their courses online have solely preferred the video format to text documentation, although you can still get some text documentation for reference purposes.

I don't think book sales are an indicator for the health of the text domain. The medium is dying not things being text.
One of the main reasons I don't like videos is because skipping is too complicated. I needed 10 times clicking my mouse to skip the first 3:30 of your video because I'm neither interested in github nor in sourcetree this time.
> My video tutorial explain the whole process of working pharo with git, to my knowledge is the only tutorial that does this, it takes from how to do things with filetree, how to use baselines (i think I included that one but my connection is down and I cant check this) , how to use git (contrary to other pharo git documentation that assumes knowledge of git) and how to use an external gui client (something I highly recommend because there is no replacement for it with pharo ) . Sourcetree is used as an example , you can use any other git gui client instead. I chose not to present gitfiletree because at the time it had problem on both MacOS and Windows, dont know if Thierry has fixed those issues.

You are telling me I should watch the video but I got the impression you didn't read any of this thread before replying ;) Your video is not about the problems I have. It is a beginner video how to use pharo and git together and that's fine. I'm glad you did it.
I'm after a workflow that can be used as developer as well as in a continuous integration server without introducing to many side effects.
thanks,
Norbert
