Hi Usman,
as far as I know, I see two things:
- Metacello and Monticello have no true concept of branch names in their
code; there is code where when you decode a package version name, you throw
away some of the name to keep only the package name, the version and the
author.
and:
- In your example, branch names are not written correctly: from filetree on
ss3 (http://ss3.gemstone.com/ss/FileTree/), what you see is that it should
be: PackageName.branch-author.version.mcz

Hi,
It seems that Metacello does not consider PackageName-xyz and
PacakgeName-BranchName-xyz as the same package. I suspect it because when I
look at the packages loaded by two different configurations with and
without branch names as package name suffixes are not the same. Could
someone knowing the internals of Metacello confirm it?
So, here is a log of Metacello of the loadDirective for ConfigOfGlamour
with and without packages with branch names. I have truncated the output to
highlight important parts of the log.
----------- Metacello log follows ----------------------
Without branching (Rubric and Glamour-Morphic-Renderer loaded only once):
linear load :
atomic load : 3.3.0 [ConfigurationOfGlamour]
linear load : 3.1.3.Moose51 [ConfigurationOfGlamourCore]
--------------------List of Packages----------------
atomic load : 1.2.14.Moose51 [ConfigurationOfRubric]
load : Rubric-AndreiChis.207
load : Glamour-Morphic-Renderer-AndreiChis.324
--------------------List of Packages----------------
linear load : 1.13 [ConfigurationOfRoassal2]
linear load : 3.1.4 [ConfigurationOfGlamourCore]
--------------------List of Packages----------------
With branching (old versions overwrites the fixes):
linear load :
atomic load : 3.3.0 [ConfigurationOfGlamour]
linear load : 3.1.3.Moose51 [ConfigurationOfGlamourCore]
--------------------List of Packages----------------
atomic load : 1.2.14.Moose51 [ConfigurationOfRubric]
load : Rubric-Moose51-usmanbhatti.207
load :
Glamour-Morphic-Renderer-Moose51-usmanbhatti.324
--------------------List of Packages----------------
linear load : 1.13 [ConfigurationOfRoassal2]
linear load : 3.1.4 [ConfigurationOfGlamourCore]
atomic load : 1.2.15 [ConfigurationOfRubric]
load : Rubric-AlainPlantec.206
load : Glamour-Morphic-Renderer-AndreiChis.321
--------------------List of Packages----------------
---------------
What it actually changes is packages with branch name are overwritten with
their predecessors and hence fixes are not correctly included in the
resulting image. It seems that ensuring correct loading in the presence of
branched packages requires no other configuration is loading previous
versions of the branched packages.
