GitLab keyboard shortcuts
GitLab has many useful keyboard shortcuts to make it easier to access different features. You can see a modal listing keyboard shortcuts within GitLab itself by pressing ?, or clicking Keyboard shortcuts in the Help menu at the top right. In GitLab 12.8 and later, keyboard shortcuts can be disabled using the Enable/Disable toggle in this modal window.
The Global Shortcuts work from any area of GitLab, but you must be in specific pages for the other shortcuts to be available, as explained in each section below.
