Hi Christoph,

I solve this with "Save as...".  First thing from the stock trunk
image is to "save as" your work name.  Then, within that work, the
same thing -- save as "_temp", do the load, then, if everything is
good, save back as the original work name.  If not, you have the old
work image and unbloated changes.

The background is that I have a "fresh trunk image" which I open several times a day to test anything out, make some changes to some classes, or install several Metacello packages but eventually close the image without saving. This bloats my changes file. How can I empty it again and remove all old do-its, prior method versions, and so on? The "remove" items in the change list tool do not seem to have any effect for me.
