sorting find-package-versions #886
Description
I was expecting find-package-versions to display the display the latest version first like the documentation describes here:
http://fsprojects.github.io/Paket/paket-find-package-versions.html
Unfortunately, I get this:
I've got tab completion working for #873, but it would work a whole lot better with this fixed.

Argh. So I assume the nuget team broke the order again.

This is not fixed in

Should it be possible to specify the sort order using
--sort ascendingand--sort descending(with--sort descendingbeing the default)?If we follow the current parameter naming convention of
find-package-versions, the parameter should maybe be namedsort ascending/sort descending, which I personally favor over--sort ascending.forki commentedon Jun 22, 2015
question is if anybody really needs this param.
btw: this issue is fixed in 1.17. - I must have been drunk yesterday when I accidentally added the "fix" to the
find-packagefunction and broke that one too.cr7pt0gr4ph7 commentedon Jun 22, 2015
If you ask who needs this: Noone, really, because you just have to
.Reverse()the resulting list of versions (if we assume nomaxargument). The only usage I can think of is scripting support, but there you most likely want to get the newest versions anyway.
