Hi All,
I just followed a common enough workflow to commit partial changes:
1. in an image with some in-progress changes, implement a fix that I want to commit, excluding the in-progress changes
2. take a copy of the image, revert the in-progress changes, commit the fix
3. in the original image, merge with the committed package
The strange thing is that while the step in 2. writes the package to the package-cache before uploading it, the step in 3. downloads the package again instead of simply using the identical copy in the package-cache. Anyone know why? Is this easy to fix? (This in a Squeak 4.5 trunk image)

Do you say "downloads" because MC displays a progress bar saying "Downloading..." or do you have additional evidence that MC downloads from the remote repository?

Well, if I merge against package-cache instead of the repository I don't see the progress bar and the whole process runs /much/ faster. So I don't have proof but it certainly looks that way.
