+![Branch filter search box](img/branch_filter_search_box.png)
+
+This feature allows you to search and select branches quickly. Search results appear in the following order:
+
+- Branches with names that matched search terms exactly.
+- Other branches with names that include search terms, sorted alphabetically.
+
+Sometimes when you have hundreds of branches you may want a more flexible matching pattern. In such cases you can use the following:
+
+- `^feature` will only match branch names that begin with 'feature'.
+- `feature$` will only match branch names that end with 'feature'.
