The garden rules returned from Girouette need to be sorted

[green-coder]

In Girouette v0.0.4, the garden rules returned by class-name->garden have some metadata which need to be used when deciding the order in which those rules need to be output in a CSS file.

This is how the processor tool of Girouette is accessing the ordering data and how it sort the rules:
https://github.com/green-coder/girouette/blob/v0.0.4/lib/processor/src/girouette/processor.clj#L172-L173

A similar sorting needs to be done in Ornament, to avoid the issue raised in green-coder/girouette#66

Update: see my comment below.

In a recent commit, I added a comparator in Girouette which is supposed to be used to compare the garden rules from its output, to determine the order in which the rules should appear in the CSS file.

This is to be used in place of what I recommended in my comment above. I will make a new release later tonight.

@green-coder how do you recommend we sort this when we have a mix of styles coming from girouette and plain garden styles?

[green-coder]

I don't know what to recommend, I don't know if you have any constraint on the ordering on the rules which do not come from Girouette.

The comparator in Girouette is currently using 2 criteria for the ordering:

• one based on a number in the metadata
• one based on if a rule is media query - the media queries are placed after the non media queries.

Girouette v0.0.5 is released, by the way.
