Hi

Thanks for reply.

When I run this load command on Pharo 3, I get exception "FileDoesNotExist: @ \tmp\github-dalehenrichfiletreeissue142.zip"

On Pharo 4, it loads. But when I try to add gitfiletree repository now (ie. clean pharo 4 platfrom -> your
issue 142 load command -> adding gitfiletree repository), I get exception "MessageNotUnderstood: ExternalWindowsOSProcess class>>defaultShellPath

When I afterwards try to manually load latest OSProcess packages, I get the same exception like before, without this issue 142 loading: "MessageNotUnderstood: receiver of "addFirst:" is nil

Hi Jan,

ok, the latest cod for GitFileTree is available on a dedicated branch on
filetree. The way to load it is:

Metacello new
        baseline: 'FileTree';
        repository: 'github://dalehenrich/filetree:issue_142/repository';
        load: 'Git'

It rely on OSProcess, and I'm not entirely sure of OSProcess on windows,
but I've simplified the commands, in part to ease an eventual Windows
support. So, if you happen to be able to test?

I would suggest pharo3.0 as your platform. I think changes to filetree
to handle pharo4.0 are still on a separate branch.
