RE: [TSVN] Re: Keyboard Shortcuts

I could see having one for the TSvn sub-menu, but the problem is that when you have more than one item with the same shortcut, pressing the button toggles thru them instead of actually firing any off. I hate that. That's why I'd be fine with no top-level menu. If there was, it should probably be V because I imagine that's rarely used. Having settings to turn it on/off would be good, too. I'm more concerned with things like update, commit, diff, clean up, branch/tag, switch, merge, and export. Those are probably the ones I use the most.

 Here's a "Me too!"...

 I raised the issue {http://svn.haxx.se/tsvn/archive-2005-09/0340.shtml} a couple of weeks ago. Stefan Küng cited l10n problems as one reason for not implementing them (actually, removing them). [I don't want this reasoning extended to the existing hotkeys in the other context menues.]

 This I don't really grok; the other entries, like "&Enque in Winamp", is nice but nowhere as important to me as the TortoiseSVN-menu. Perhaps we could have the hotkey for the toplevel menu entry configurable? (As in "[A-Z] or emtpy".)

 How do you select the TortoiseSVN-submenu? For me this takes 14 keystrokes:
<S-F10> + <UP> + <UP>...(12 times) + <RIGHT>. [The best I can do is 6
keystrokes: <S-F10> + z (selects winzip-submenu) + <LEFT> + <UP> + <UP> + <RIGHT>]
