which package did you clone?

how exactly are you trying to load it?

what do you mean?
when code is saved with filetree (or gitfiletree) each class is a directory,
with each method as a file.

My suggestion is try to use as much as possible smalltalkhub and
monticello before diving into git.
The pharo git support is working for people knowing it (= not me for
example).

I do not understand what are you trying to do.

you cloned a repo in your disk, then you have, for example:

path/to/myProject/myPackage.package/etc…

to use it, you have to add the repository (path/to/myProject) to monticello browser, as a filetree repository.
then you can browse and interact exactly as any other monticello repository: you can save and load packages you see listed there.

so… what lost me is the question about the .extension… you DO NOT HAVE to do anything… saving a package from monticello browser will save also the extensions belonging to that package.

cheers,
Esteban

Rohit, when you put a method in a protocol of the form *MyPackage, it's a hack which is not really a protocol at all, but tells Monticello, Pharo's SCM: "package this method in MyPackage instead of with the method's class (the default)". We call it an "extension method". Then, when GitFileTree saves the source to disk, it creates a .extension file inside the .package file. It is like a .class file, but remember the class is packaged elsewhere, so it already has a .class file. On loading, if the class is present in the system, GitFileTree adds the extension method (which is described in the .extension file) to it.
