From the threads below - how would I find the commit with my missing class - Sean has pointed me to a git query that helps with that (and presumablyq is something we can plug into iceberg - maybe I will even take a look).
Having identified the hash with the class I want - getting to it is awkward (there is no search - again pretty easy for us to plug in, but something to do)
Having got to my commit - how can I retrieve one class? Maybe this is something only in Pharo 7 with Calypso? All I can see are diffs - so I���d have to copy and paste 20 methods and a class def. doable, but painful. I���m hoping there is a way to get a shadow copy of the commit from the tonel file and then use it to restore classes and methods? As this sounds like a decent chunk of work, I���m guessing it���s not done yet?
As a fallback, Any thoughts on why git won���t let me checkout a file from that commit? Something about the pathspec (is it mangled in some way)? And if I could restore a tonel file - would iceberg then recognise it to bring it back in, or Would I need to use some filestream foo to do that (as this would at least be a viable workaround for now)?

Hi,Regarding history, right now we have a history browser implemented as a Calypso plugin, that is open using context menu => history or the little box button on the top right of the method pane (second button from the left in the picture):<Screen Shot 2018-06-14 at 09.34.24.png>That button will nowadays only be shown if the method's package is linked to an iceberg repository.Once you click it, you will have the entire history of the method.<Screen Shot 2018-06-14 at 09.47.46.png>With the possibility to install that version of the method (among others).Now, regarding the recovery of deleted classes/methods, have you tried the repository browser?Go to Iceberg, right click on a repository and select "Repository".You can there select a commit in history and then in the tabs below see the diff between- your current version and the selected commit- the selected commit and its main parentOf course any of these can be improved, but if you have concrete requests, it is much easier :)GuilleOn Wed, Jun 13, 2018 at 11:22 PM Tim Mackinnon <tim@testit.works> wrote:Hi Sean - I tried it again, and it worked:git log --full-history -- */PrismicBlock.class*(I got my wildcard slightly wrong for tonel format) - although the beauty of the one I gave was that it shows you all deleted classes (in case you don���t know the name)I���m still confused why I can���t checkout the deleted class though - damn you git, for the cryptic error: : error: pathspec 'PrismicDemo/PrismicBlock.class.st' did not match any file(s) known to git.I was hoping a quick hack to iceberg might be to OSProcess a few choice git commands to help us along while we work out better ways to do things.TimOn 13 Jun 2018, at 21:53, Sean P.

Interesting.
When I searched for commits affecting the deleted class SuDebianKey:
$ git log --full-history -- */SuDebianKey.class/properties.json
I got back a list of commits (obviously with the last chronologically being
the deletion):
