What is the system you use?

AFAIK Esteban is fixing the latest Iceberg because it stopped to work on Windows...

-- Pavel

windows 10 32 bit

and on another windows 10 64  bit system

on both, it crashes on working with libgit/iceberg

Any news ?

Anyone got a working libgit/iceberg for windows 32 or windows 64 ?

Or is there any other way to be up to date with fixes, doing reviews and bug fixes (without using github in the web browser) ?

Now, I tried again with the latest vm/image version and I get this error

LGit_GIT_ERROR: username does not match previous request'

Any idea ?

 

I used my git username in the ssh settings.

If I use "git" as username for the ssh setting, it complains about

failed to authenticate SSH session

How do other windows users use all this for pharo 7, any windows user how can write a little howto ?

 

Any news on howto use iceberg / libgit on windows.

Does no one else use windows ?

I do not understand what's the problem. It was working on my tests... and I know several people is using windows (Torsten one of them).

What's the problem you are having in concrete? I need to see how to reproduce it :(

Hi,

I can use Iceberg on Windows 7 but not to participate to Pharo (or any
project with file name longer than 255chars).

So I can work on my projects or on projects like Iceberg. I have a ssh
key on my Windows that is associated to my github account and I have a
startup script executing this:

IceCredentialsProvider useCustomSsh: true.

Since my ssh key has the default name for a rsa key it select it by
default and I can use Iceberg.

To be sure this is not a ssh key problem you can try to install git bash
and to commit on a repository with a ssh remote. If it works you'll be
sure the ssh key is good.

yes, just tested, this seems to work. I can use the key for a ssh remote commit from the command line.

but somehow I can not use it with pharo /iceberg..

Thanks for the info, cyril.

What do you use for the ssh username in pharo setting and what username
did you use for creating the ssh-key ?
I tried both, my github-email and my github-username, I didn't get it to
work.

I did not use anything special. While creating the ssh key I used all
the default options and in the setting I do not change the username (see
joined screenshot).

This is the command I probably used since I followed github tutorial[1]:

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "[hidden email]"

[1] https://help.github.com/articles/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/

yes, the keys may be an issue, but the standard rsa generated key should work. We need to do a pass in security/credentials system (and probably a revamp of some parts), but I still didn’t find the time.

about the 255 limitation, if you execute this in command line: 

git config --system core.longpaths true

it should also fix the problem with pharo repo.

I am using "pharo-mac-stable.zip" and "Pharo-7.0.0-alpha.build.27.sha.c1c8991.arch.32bit.zip" and followed your howto and run into various Iceberg issues. Where would be the best place to report them?

Open Iceberg, selech "Pharo", click on Branches
=> Error LGit_GIT_ERROR: Reference 'HEAD' is not a local branch.

Open Iceberg, double click on "Pharo"
=> DNU, #/ was sent to nil
UndefinedObject(Object)>>doesNotUnderstand: #/
... IceSavedPackage repository location seems to return nil.


Are these known? Fogbugz? Github issues of Iceberg?

cheers
