Why is the special Visual Studio hotkey for GitExtensions reset after a restart?

Question

I am using the Visual Studio GitExtensions extension 2.26, which they include. I tried to assign a special keyboard hotkey to execute the command as follows:

And everything works fine until I restart Visual Studio. After that, the hotkey becomes magically unassigned. Everything works if I select any other command, and not from the GitPlugin group . * . Maybe someone ran into the same problem and found a workaround? Thanks!

Answer 1

As a workaround, you can grab a request to transfer the added access keys to the menu items of the VS plugin and create your own copy of the extension. After you copy the files from GitExtensions \ GitPlugin \ bin to Documents \ Visual Studio 2010 \ Addins , you will get accelerator keys for Git. This will allow, for example, accessing Commit with Alt + G, C.
