Branches list filtering

Riki Fridrich 5 years ago updated by Duoc Dam 1 year ago 7

We have hundreds of branches in our project. They are created automatically for every issue and bug. When I need to find and clone specific branch, it is really hard to find them in the long list. There is search, but that is not very useful, because it only jumps to the first matching branch name. It would be really helpful to be able to filter the branches, to type part of the name and the view would only display matching branches.

This would also be useful for tags.

Many projects using strict semantic versioning will produce one-three tags per week leading to around >100 tags per year.

I could imaging:

  • pattern / regexp based filtering
  • by date (e.g. last 2 months)
  • understanding semantic versioning (in branches and tags) and allowing filters like 2.3.* or >=3.7

At least the simplest filtering would be appreciated!

In some projects there are hundreds of branches. And simple sort will help a lot

Please give 22.1 Preview a try, here branch filtering has been implemented in the Standard window:

I've meant ability to filter branches here

Hi Marc StrapetzThomas Singer

 I have the same issue with Vladimir when my project has over two hundred branches, please add a search textbox on the Working Tree UI, it is really useful when we want to quickly checkout a branch on the repo

To check out a branch by typing the name, you can use Ctrl+P popup.

Wow amazing, it very quickly. Thank!
