### Pinning to the `v1` branch
### Pinning to the `v1` releases
Similarly to the section above describing use of the `v2` branch, if one wants
to avoid any unexpected compatibility pains once `v2` becomes `master`, then
pinning to the `v1` branch is an acceptable option, e.g.:

#### Ordering
Flags for the application and commands are shown in the order they are defined.
However, it's possible to sort them from outside this library by using `FlagsByName`
or `CommandsByName` with `sort`.
For example this:
<!-- {
"args": ["&#45;&#45;help"],
"output": "add a task to the list\n.*complete a task on the list\n.*\n\n.*\n.*Load configuration from FILE\n.*Language for the greeting.*"
} -->
``` go
package main
import (
"os"
"sort"
"github.com/urfave/cli"
)
func main() {
app := cli.NewApp()
app.Flags = []cli.Flag {
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "lang, l",
Value: "english",
Usage: "Language for the greeting",
},
cli.StringFlag{
Name: "config, c",
Usage: "Load configuration from `FILE`",
},
}
app.Commands = []cli.Command{
{
Name: "complete",
Aliases: []string{"c"},
Usage: "complete a task on the list",
Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
return nil
},
},
{
Name: "add",
Aliases: []string{"a"},
Usage: "add a task to the list",
Action: func(c *cli.Context) error {
return nil
},
},
}
sort.Sort(cli.FlagsByName(app.Flags))
sort.Sort(cli.CommandsByName(app.Commands))
app.Run(os.Args)
}
```
Will result in help output like:
```
--config FILE, -c FILE Load configuration from FILE
--lang value, -l value Language for the greeting (default: "english")
```
