What is in this release?
This release contains a refactored version of the Version Browser in Squeak. The new design will enable VersionsBrowser to look for versions of source code of methods stored in different locations. In essence, it can locate source code available both in local source files as well as available remotely through an external code repository.As seen in the figure below, as per the current release, an empty 'changes' file will be shipped to the user alongwith a 'sources' file which contains the most recent versions of the methods. As the user makes changes to the code, those changes will be recorded in the 'changes' file. However at the same time a remote repository containing all previous versions of the methods is also made available in the event that a user wishes to see how the code evolved over a period of time. So while this will not be shipped along with a new release of Squeak, it will be made available through the internet for interested users.
