How do you search for a branch in SourceTree

How do you search for a branch in SourceTree.

It has gotten to the point where i have hundreds of branches and looking through a list in the remote branch tree is next to impossible.

Is there a way of doing it?

Solution

  • I don't think this is possible directly in SourceTree, but you can grep branches via the command line

    git branch --all | grep <query>

    for example

    git branch --all | grep notifications

    Will return all branches (remote or local) that contain notifications in the name.
