As soon as a class is inside a package that is managed by iceberg, you should see in Calypso a new button and menu item on methods (called History, with a little box icon).

Well there is no magic :). Either you walk the commits (#parent or #newCommitWalk (!! too low level)) and calculate for each a diff against its parent (#diffTo:).
Other thing you can do to check how IceGitLog is implemented, using directly libgit.

About the git error, I don't have time to check now but, I think it may be something easy that is going under your nose :)
You got your commitish from the `git log --diff-filter=D --summary ���pretty="format:%cd|%h|%cn%n%s%n���`, didn't you?
Then, this means the commitish you got has the file already deleted! So if you want to recover it, you have to check its parent!

Can you try (notice the added the ~1)

$ git checkout 65363ad~1 src/PrismicDemo/PrismicBlock.class.st

?

For the record - I get the same error using those steps on Ubuntu as well. So I must be doing something wrong?

(Note in my message when I pasted the command used - I neglected the git in front of:��log --diff-filter=D --summary�����pretty="format:%cd | %h | %H | %cn%n-> %s%n���)

And just to add to this - I just did a git clone (git clone��git@github.com:pharo-project/pharo.git)����in a fresh directory and can see that same deleted file - and when I try to do a checkout, it gives the path spec error.

This is very weird - is it some osx thing? I will try it on ubuntu - but I feel I must be missing something, like do I need a different prefix on path names (but you didn���t seem to need one)?

I���d be very worried if git is acting up��� but I still suspect user error here.

Hey thanks Ben - this still doesn���t work for me��� good idea to try on the Pharo repo itself.

I have a fork of it, which I catch up periodically - so I tried a similar suggestion to you - went into my directory (underneath the src folder) and typed:

log --diff-filter=D --summary --graph --pretty='format:%cd | %h | %H | %cn%n-> %s%n���

This gave me:

��delete mode 100644 src/Polymorph-Widgets-Rules/IconShortcutRule.class.st

So then I tried to recover that last one (again at root underneath the src directory)

git checkout b4a285a61 src/Polymorph-Widgets-Rules/IconShortcutRule.class.st
error: pathspec 'src/Polymorph-Widgets-Rules/IconShortcutRule.class.st' did not match any file(s) known to git.

And I still get that dreaded pathspec error. This is on OSX (not windows) - so I���m struggling to understand what I could be doing wrong. It must be something obvious - but damned if I can see how I���m doing anything different to you. And it wouldn���t make sense that git is broken on OSX?

I'm not sure if this is what you wanted, but I found a test case for for Pharo 7, a deleted��class��"MultiByteFileStreamTest.class.st"
https://github.com/pharo-project/pharo/pull/1031/files#diff-750a25fb99d29cda8c2c388dc18f6c1cL1

From Windows 10 cmd.exe I tried the following (I can't remember which tool installed `git`)...

> mkdir C:\temp\test
> cd C:\temp\test
> git clone��git@github.com:pharo-project/pharo.git
> cd pharo\src\Deprecated70
> dir����Multi*
no result
>��git checkout e74308e67d9f84 MultiByteFileStreamTest.class.st
> dir Multi*

Then I compared the file I checked out to the raw file on github and they were identical...
https://www.diffchecker.com/gVCpJzFe


btw, I did get a momentary error "error: pathspec 'src/Deprecated70/MultiByteFileStreamTest.class.st' did not match any file(s) known to git."
when I incorrectly did...
>��cd pharo\src\Deprecated70
> git�� git checkout e74308e67d9f84�� src/Deprecated70/MultiByteFileStreamTest.class.st


This worked��with the longer path...��
>��cd pharo
> git����git checkout e74308e67d9f84����src/Deprecated70/MultiByteFileStreamTest.class.st
