put remote branches at the bottom in "branches" dropdowns

By sergio.na... on October 16, 2012 17:29 (imported from Google Code)


Currently all dropdowns listing branches are ordered alphabetically, so local and remote branches can end up mixed together like this:

- aaaa_test
- master
- remotes/bitbucket/master
- remotes/bitbucket/v1.0
- remotes/bitbucket/v2.0
- remotes/bitbucket/v3.0
- v1.0
- v2.0

It might make sense to put local branches first, followed by remote branches like:

- aaaa_test
- master
- v1.0
- v2.0
- remotes/bitbucket/master
- remotes/bitbucket/v1.0
- remotes/bitbucket/v2.0
- remotes/bitbucket/v3.0

The rationale is:
- better separation between local and remote
- more likely that someone wants to switch/select a local branch rather than a remote one

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
