This is a revival of commit c4ccaf0fdb:
"mu: sort childs of thread based on the sortfield only",
whose effect was apparently lost during the rewrite to C++.
Today when we query a find cmd with the `--threads` option, all the
children of each thread are sorted according to the most recent
message in the thread.
This patch changes how the children of a thread are sorted. Threads
are still sorted according to the thread date, but the children of each
thread are now sorted by their own date only.
Here is an example of what happened with the previous sorting:
Example with random kernel thread sorted by date:
[PATCH 0/4] drm/panel: jh057n0090: Add regulators and drop magic value in init
┣━▶[PATCH 1/4] MAINTAINERS: Add Purism mail alias as reviewer for their devkit's panel
┣━▶[PATCH 2/4] drm/panel: jh057n0090: Don't use magic constant
┣━▶[PATCH 3/4] dt-bindings: display/panel: jh057n0090: Document power supply properties
┗━▶[PATCH 4/4] drm/panel: jh057n0090: Add regulator support
If someone replies to one of these emails in the middle, its date will
bubble-up and the sorting becomes:
