What the system is telling you is that:
while the code of the projects is in your image/changes, the system
does not know (it cannot invent because
you could running it on the moon or mars for example) where are the git
repositories where it could find the
working copies and the versionned elements of such packages.
I think that the status is pretty clear.
So if you want to load code via git from your new machine there is no magic.
Git is a distributed versioning system so you have to clone your repo locally
and tell it to Pharo.
Now iceberg is quite cool because if you do repair it will
- clone
- configure your working so that it correspond to the code version in
your image
- probably fetching some version.
In fact there is no difference between your mac talking to github and another
repository.
You have local and remotes + pharo (another kind of local).
So Pharo alone can work but it cannot guess where you decided to store your
local git repositories.
I hope that it helps.
