Order

This setting allows you to change how Git Town orders branches it displays.

Allowed values:

• asc sort branches in natural sort order, ascending (default)
• desc sort branches in natural sort order, descending

CLI flag

You can override this setting per command using:

• --order=asc to force ascending order
• --order=desc to force descending order

config file

[branches]
order = "<asc|desc>"

Git metadata

To enable ordering branches in Git, run this command:

git config [--global] git-town.order <asc|desc>

The optional --global flag applies this setting to all Git repositories on your machine. Without it, this setting applies to the current Git repo.

environment variable

You can configure branches ordering by setting the GIT_TOWN_ORDER environment variable.
