I just got back from vacation and prepared a new image to work on the current project. Well, I upgraded iceberg to 0.6.5 and everything works like expected. I can see nicely what my colleagues have done while I was away. I can update everything easily. And most important I can do changes and then cherry pick and commit.
So even if people are complaining about missing features (they always do!) I can say that for a basic workflow (for me about 95% of my work) everything seems to be in place. So everyone should feel invited to add the missing pieces. Well done and thank you, Norbert
