The shortest and most ui intensive way seems to be:
- open fresh pharo - load only configuration from configuration browser - open versionner, click development and load version - Then the metacello command runs smoothly I'm thinking about creating a deployment user that has access to the repo and then add the credentials to the baseline url. That doesn't sound good but the access you need for the repo supersedes the access of the deployment user so for a closed project not too bad as long as SSL urls are used. Norbert
