Hi Stef,

That button is now called "Copy", since some people reported being
confused the old way (in particular, because the Save button on the
RepositoryInspector has different behavior from the Save button on the
WodkingCopyBrowser, and the two look similar enough to mix them up).

This reminds me that I should really be announcing some of the other
changes that have taken place in Monticello over the last few months. 
Here are some of the highlights; none of them are major, but they're
worth reporting.  Thanks to Ned and Bert for contributing some of
these:

- MC has a habit of bloating images beyond belief with its cached
versions.  As a temporary measure, you can now send
"MCFileBasedRepository flushAllCaches" to slim things back down.
- There are several enhancements to the RepositoryInspector.  When you
select a package and then open a repository, you'll notice that:
      - the correct branch of the package will be selected, if there
is more than one
      - all of the loaded package branches will be sorted to the top
of the package list
      - a package which has possibly newer versions will be bold
      - in the version list, currently loaded versions will be underlined
      - in the version list, non-ancestors of the loaded version (ie,
candidates for merge) will be bold
Note that the underlining and bolding doesn't seem to work on 3.8.  Do
we still have issues with using style in PluggableLists?
- Loading a .mcz from a RemoteDirectory now works
- Change set naming is more useful and intelligent
- Automatic version numbering is more intelligent
- Dependency ordering is more stable.  If you have custom element
types (like annotations or load scripts) this makes them more
reliable.
- The snapshot now includes a binary snapshot of the elements as well
as the .st fileout.  This speeds up loading considerably without
sacrificing backwards compatibility (at the expense of file size).
- Monticello now supports automated commit emails.  If you place a
file called "notify" in a repository, with one email address per line,
each of those addresses will be emailed with diff and commit log
information whenever somebody saves a new version into that
repository.

For more information, browse the version history of the latest MC
version on SqueakMap.
