Keyboard shortcuts
Most GitTree commands have a shortcut. Press Ctrl+/ (⌘/ on a Mac) for the full list inside the app, filtered as you type; Customize… there changes any of them. The tables below list the defaults.
Works in GitTree Free: every local Git feature, once you are signed in.

A shortcut does nothing
Some keys work only where they apply: Stage and Unstage in the changes list, Next Change in a diff. Others may be taken by your system or customized; check Keyboard Shortcuts in the app.
Questions
Why do some shortcuts differ on my computer?
Chords a platform cannot deliver are not shown there, and any shortcut you customized replaces the default. The list in the app is always the one in effect.
