[QUERY] How do you sort completions?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I'm not able to sort completions for some weird reason.  No matter
what I order I insert stuff into COMPREPLY, bash seems to auto-sort
them lexically.  I tried to pass --sort='-committerdate' to git
for-each-ref so I can get a sensible 'git checkout <TAB>' reply, and
I'm very annoyed that it doesn't work.

I thought it was bash's complete builtin doing the implicit sorting,
so I read the manual with no success.  Is readline doing it?  If so,
why am I not getting the ordering even in zsh (which doesn't use
readline)?

What am I missing?
