I tried the above commands to no avail. moveconfig hangs. I assume you meant "cat" instead of "echo"? But even then it doesn't sort the values. Fixing that I just got a bunch of "no defconfig matched" warnings. What is the motivation of sorting these values in Kconfig order? Is it just for the sake of keeping comments in the right place? Would sorting in alphabetical order cause other issues? Should there perhaps be a make target to take care of automatically cleaning up defconfig files?
