How can I create a folder for my branches in my repository to keep the list of branches in origin from getting too long. A folder would at least allow these to become collapsible and can help with group branches by type for features, bugs, release and hotfix.
You can prefix the branch you want to create with the folder name or branch type you want. For example you can put a feature branch into a feature folder by making the branch name.
feature/branch_name
This can be done on multiple levels. For example
feature/home/create_home_page
feature/profile/create_add_profile_page
feature/profile/create_profile_list_page
This is an example of how the tree will look.
feature/home
->create_home_page
feature
-> profile
-> -> create_add_profile_page
-> -> create_profile_list_page
