Hello,

Some time ago I presented Git Thermite in this mailing. Git Thermite is a tool for visualizing Git commits that I am making for my master thesis. Now I have managed to integrate Git Thermite with Iceberg.


Pharo 7 installation doIt:

Metacello new
   baseline: 'Thermite';
   repository: '<a href="github://ronsaldo/pharo-git-thermite/src" class="">github://ronsaldo/pharo-git-thermite/src';
   load
Please, I would love to get some usage feedback through the Google form :-)

Best regards,
Ronie

Re: [ANN] Git Thermite integration with Iceberg

Paul DeBruicker
Please take this with a grain of salt and I'm not at all trying to do
anything but be helpful and expose my confusion.

It looks interesting but what are some use cases of Thermite?

I don't have a real good sense of what kind of understanding it helps with.  

From reading the github page I can see that I can get some visuals of what
fraction of a package I've changed/touched in a commit or between two
arbitrary commits.  

The documentation is understandable but is a lot of "what" & "how" and not a
lot of "why" or "because"  and so I have to try to come up with that on my
own.  


I'm sure there's value there because its obviously a lot of work to get the
project to this point, but I'm not able to make the leap there today.  

What changes in my behavior or process should I have or begin to think about
as a result of seeing thses types of visualizations?



I'm happy to fill out the form but "I don't 'get it' after looking at it for
15 minutes" doesn't seem like helpful feedback just yet.  



Maybe its intended to be more useful in teams and not so much for a solo
developer.  


Also - I'm partially red/green colorblind.  Where can I edit the colors to
not use Red/Green?
