The big change in this release is what I have been referring to as the "keybinding revamp": it allows you to use richer keybindings than the few that were available before; see Custom_Keybindings.md (github.com) for details. It also describes a new keybinding syntax that is a bit more intuitive than the previous <c-x> notation (but the old one is still supported for backwards compatibility).

Note the section about Terminal compatibility in that document; not all terminals support the new protocol equally well, so it may be a good idea to switch to one that does.

Breaking change: The default keybinding for submitting a commit from the commit description editor has changed from alt-enter to command-enter on Mac, or ctrl-enter on Linux and Windows; these are the same bindings that are used in many multi-line edit field situations, e.g. in GitHub comments. Unfortunately these are not supported by all terminals; see the above-mentioned terminal compatibility for more on that. If you want to revert this change, you can do so by adding the following to your config:

:::yml
keybinding:
  universal:
    confirmInEditor: [<alt+enter>, <ctrl+s>]
