Loading of Baselines from GitHub in Metacello using pattern matching not working on Windows

When trying to load a baseline using the Metacello API and version pattern matching, using the gituhb:// scheme produces an error because it's trying to create a directory with a question mark (?).

To reproduce try in a Pharo4/5 image:

Metacello new

baseline: 'RenoirSt';

repository: 'github://gcotelli/RenoirSt:v1.?/source';

load.

Dale, Is this supposed to work? Tomorrow I will give it a try on Linux.

Thanks,

Gabriel

Gabriel,

Are you using the latest version of Metacello from github (these
instructions work for versions 3.0 and newer[1])?

The pattern matching feature is relatively new so unless you've loaded
from github, you are likely not getting the needed support ...

I think that Pharo5.0 should be built with the latest Metacello drop
from github ... but it must not be happening yet ....

I'm using the version that comes preloaded with Pharo. This also fails in Pharo 5. I will give it a try with the github version and if it works I can prepare a slice to merge this version in Pharo.

Thanks

Thanks Dale,

I can confirm that with the latest version in master this works in Pharo 5.
