Hi, I've just migrated to using FileTree with SVN and am wondering if it is possible to use it without the monticello.meta? You obviously get a lot of merge conflicts with these and the version file in particular, and I didn't really see much benefit when using SVN for commit comments and revision histories and so forth so have just been ignoring / deleting them. It seems to work ok for the most part and by loading packages with Gofer, but I feel like I'm fighting the system a bit and have not had much luck with Metacello in particular which I would like to get working again. Can anyone advise? Thanks Chris
Chris, "is possible?" yes ... I've gone through several different versions of FileTree where I've played different games with the meta data ... in the end I figured that to make it simple for folks to move back and forth that the meta data was best left intact ... With that said, I have several projects that are 100% stored in git and I am mightily annoyed by the extra meta data showing up as changes so I am getting close to nuking the meta data ... as an option .... but I have been busy working on "real projects" instead of spending almost this entire year working on infrastructure so I probably won't be making the changes real soon:) Dale ----- Original Message ----- | From: "Chris" <cpmbailey@btinternet.com> | To: "A friendly place where any question about pharo is welcome" <pharo-users@lists.gforge.inria.fr> | Sent: Tuesday, November 13, 2012 11:18:00 AM | Subject: [Pharo-users] FileTree queries | | Hi, | | I've just migrated to using FileTree with SVN and am wondering if it | is | possible to use it without the monticello.meta?
