Description

gitui seems to support default order(lex-asc) by branch name only.

It will be very helpful when support options to change branch.sort config (e.g. git branch --sort -committerdate)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement support for the branch.sort Git configuration option by reading the config value and applying the corresponding sort order to the branch list.
