Is there really people preferring the status quo ? ;) Of course we probably need some debate about making it default or not but you're completely right there should be an option about that - and maybe a config variable as well? How about --sort=ascending|descending|natural (with branch.sort as the corresponding config var) ?

Junio, about the borrowed code, indeed I was not sure where to put it, initialliy I thought using directory strnatcmp/ like it's done for mozilla-sha1/ and xdiff/, but well... probably a more general directory that will be used for other 'borrowed' stuff in the future makes sense.
