I had been following the Developing a simple counter chapter.
All was well.
I created an iceberg repository and added my Project to it.
I committed the sources to git.
Still working OK.
Then I did a push of all that to my GitHub/MichaelKentBurns/MyCounter repository.
I got a progress bar for the push which never made any progress. ��
Instead I got the beachball spinner.�� After quite some time I wanted to interrupt it to see if I could recover, but I could find a way.
Eventually I had to force-quit.

When I restarted my Pharo image, all of that work was lost because I had not done a save.

My Question: Is there some way to interrupt such a process?

You should be able to push <meta-.> where meta is Ctrl / Alt / Command depending on your OS.

i.e. push period and meta keys together.

btw, in Pharo 7 I have been experiencing a few seconds lag before the debugger appears,

such that it seems it didn't work so I end up hammering the <meta-.> key and half a dozen debuggers show up.

Apart from needing to modify my behaviour, what have other experienced.��

I understood there was some work lately to improve responsiveness,��so maybe I move to Pharo 9 soon.
