Dependencies between git projects ?

I normally specify my dependencies between git projects like this:

BaselineOfP3 >> baselineOf: spec
  <baseline>
  spec
    for: #common
    do: [
      spec baseline: 'NeoJSON' with: [ spec repository: 'github://svenvc/NeoJSON:master/repository' ].
      baseline: 'ZTimestamp' with: [ spec repository: 'github://svenvc/ztimestamp:master/repository' ].
      spec baseline: 'Glorp' with: [ spec repository: 'github://pharo-rdbms/glorp:master/'].
      spec package: 'P3' with: [ spec requires: #('NeoJSON' 'ZTimestamp') ].
      spec package: 'P3-Tests' with: [ spec requires: #('P3') ].
      spec package: 'P3-Glorp' with: [ spec requires: #('P3' 'Glorp') ].
      spec group: 'default' with: #('P3' 'P3-Tests').
      spec group: 'core' with: #('P3').
      spec group: 'glorp' with: #('P3-Glorp') ]

Today I (finally, duh) realised that the github:// syntax actually requires a valid GitHub user. Since I do this with all my (public) projects, it obviously works (for others too), but still, is it actually 'wrong' ?

Looks okay to me. Can you say more about what you mean by “wrong”?

NB if your subprojects have metadata and your main project doesn’t have to
be compatible outside recent Pharo you can remove the code subfolder from
those URLs and eliminate a bit of duplication

With 'wrong' I mean that if you are not a GitHub user yourself, you cannot access a repository that way, you need to use https (IIUC). This seems to happen automatically by Metacello though.

You mean 'repository' ? I sometimes use an empty one, although it seems 'src' is the standard now.

In Pharo settings you can set it to use HTTPS for all github: repos.  


Maybe on the first github authentication error it could ask whether they'd
prefer to use anonymous HTTPS to connect to github.
