sort_commits doesn't work but --sort does

[azzamsa]

Describe the bug
I want my commits to be sorted by the newest time. However, it does not work using sort_commits = "newest" but it works using --sort newest

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. git clone https://github.com/orhun/git-cliff
2. cd git-cliff
3. git-cliff --config config/cliff.toml --tag 0.1.0-beta.3

4. change sort_commits = "oldest" to sort_commits = "newest" in /git-cliff/config/cliff.toml
   the run the same command git-cliff --config config/cliff.toml --tag 0.1.0-beta.3

The order is same. no chages

---

5. Now, remove the sort_commits = "newest" line the config.
6. run git-cliff --config config/cliff.toml --tag 0.1.0-beta.3 --sort newest and git-cliff --config config/cliff.toml --tag 0.1.0-beta.3 --sort oldest. Now it works.
7. Got the error?

Expected behavior
sort_commits = "newest" should output the same exact thing as --sort newest

Hello, thanks for reporting this! 🐻

I realized, in 4eb334d, I'm overriding the values of command line arguments no matter what if the config file has the same entry. So I fixed that situation in ef63727, can you check and verify that it works as expected with this change now?

I did cargo install git-ciff -f, but the issue still there.

I cant make sure since we don't have a git hash in our --version

I did cargo install git-ciff -f, but the issue still there.

cargo install does not pull the latest revision from git. You can build from source or use docker images to try it out until a new version is published.

Oh, OK.

Now runni ./target/release/git-cliff --config config/cliff.toml --tag 0.1.0-beta.3 solves the issue.

Thanks a lot for git-cilff, Orhun.
