From a bzr repository I can return timestamps from different revision commits by using
branch.repository.get_revision(revision_id).timestamp
after I get the timestamp I can use: datetime.fromtimestamp(timestamp).strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S') to get the format of 2020-05-27 15:26:57.
I am going to store a number of these into a list and then from there I will need to sort them from the oldest date and time to the newest date and time. I looked at a bunch of the other questions already on here but none of the answers seemed to translate to this situation very easily.
calling sorted() on your list should do the trick:
lst = ['2020-05-27 15:26:57','2020-06-27 15:26:57','2020-03-27 15:26:57']
sorted(lst)
Output: ['2020-03-27 15:26:57', '2020-05-27 15:26:57', '2020-06-27 15:26:57']
We can also use lst.sort() to do the trick in the following way:
lst.sort()
lst
Output: ['2020-03-27 15:26:57', '2020-05-27 15:26:57', '2020-06-27 15:26:57']
