Hello Tristan,
I have made a collection of lute scores and put all of them in books by
instrument (number of lute courses). I select those I play well enough
to perform and put them into a "performance" book for each instrument.
In that book the songs are in order of keys starting with the most
flats and progressing to the most sharps. This minimizes the effort to
re-tune when moving on to the next piece. I have found strings hold
their new pitch better when tuned-up to a sharp.
Thanks,
George

I would add number of courses and tuning.
