For sorting purposes, fields with numeric values sort in numeric
order (`objectsize`, `authordate`, `committerdate`, `taggerdate`).
All other fields are used to sort in their byte-value order.
+There is also an option to sort by versions, this is done using the
+field names ('version:refname' or 'v:refname').
In any case, a field name that refers to a field inapplicable to
the object referred by the ref does not cause an error. Itdiff --git a/ref-filter.c b/ref-filter.c
