Re: [Pharo-users] Pushing to GitHub repository from my iceberg repository is hung (beachball). How do I interrupt the process?

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.

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. cheers -ben
Hi michael Iâm sincerly sad about the bad experience you encounter (especially when I see how stable is the system on my machine â and Iâm a bug magnet for any software â everything crashes with me â sadly enough).

Can you tell us what is your OS? version pharo version Can you commit from the command line? Are you using ssh or Https? If ssh are you using an agent? In Pharo 90 we are about to release a new C binding for libgit because the version we use is .25 and we will get to 1.0.

Your code is there. Open the change code. And you can reapply your changes. As a general principle the only thing that you can really lose is the method you are editing but did not compile (and all your code if you do not have write permissions but this is a bit normal)

Can you tell us what is your OS? version
MKB: MacOS 10.15.4.
pharo version
MKB: Pharo 8.0.0 Build information: Pharo-8.0.0+build.1124.sha.0932da82f08175e906b0e2a8052120c823374e9f (64 Bit)
Can you commit from the command line?
MKB: Yes, Iâve used git from a shell and several git Gui clients for years. I started earlier (before I was introduced to Iceberg) by filing out my classes into the top level of a git repo for this project. Then I can commit and push from there to GitHub
Are you using ssh or Https?
MKB: I have probably used ssh, but more likely https.
If ssh are you using an agent?
MKB: Not sure what you mean. Not that Iâm aware of.

I use an ssh-agent to not have to retype my login.
