The changes are only in the first commit.

Because of this, the list of local refs (heads) can be interrupted by the list of remote refs. This change re-orders the view to be: local refs, remote refs tracked by local refs, remote refs, tags, and then other refs.

This seems like a nice idea, and could lead on to having a section that can be opened and closed for each of these categories. However, I have some comments on the implementation: > @@ -9933,35 +9933,71 @@ proc refill_reflist {} { > global curview > > if {![info exists showrefstop] || ![winfo exists $showrefstop]} return > - set refs {} > + set localrefs {} > + set remoterefs {} > + set locally_tracked_remote_refs {} > + set tagrefs {} > + set otherrefs {} > foreach n [array names headids] { > - if {[string match $reflistfilter $n]} { > + if {![string match "remotes/*" $n] && [string match $reflistfilter $n]} { > if {[commitinview $headids($n) $curview]} { > - lappend refs [list $n H] > + lappend localrefs [list $n H] > + catch {set remote_name [exec git config --get branch.$n.remote]} > + if {$remote_name ne ""} { > + catch {set remote_ref [exec git config --get branch.$n.merge]} > + set remote_ref [string map {"refs/heads/" ""} $remote_ref] > + set locally_tracked_remote_ref "remotes/$remote_name/$remote_ref" > + set upstream_exists "" > + catch {set upstream_exists [exec git rev-parse --verify $locally_tracked_remote_ref]} > + if {$upstream_exists ne ""} { > + if {[lsearch $locally_tracked_remote_refs [list $locally_tracked_remote_ref H]] < 0} { > + lappend locally_tracked_remote_refs [list $locally_tracked_remote_ref H] > + } > + } > + } I'm worried about the number of external git invocations we're potentially doing here, and how long that would take when you have a lot of heads. Can we cache the results perhaps? Or is there a way to do a single git command and get a list of tracking branches with their remotes etc.? Also, the default for lsearch is glob-style matching. It's unlikely that ref names would have any of *?[\ in them, but AFAIK it's not impossible. You probably want -exact in there. Further, the kind of thing you are using lsearch for can often be done more efficiently using an array (which becomes essentially a hash table underneath).
