Just had to test what the other keys did.

What i found:

t = search file

j/k = move down/down (selected file)

w = select branch

s = focus search field

y = expands url

Anyone know any more?

EDIT: Found this https://help.github.com/articles/using-keyboard-shortcuts/

Press ? on any page.
Oh my, this just led to me finding https://github.com/issues.

I'm guessing I should be slightly embarrassed to have not realised that existed - was it there before they changed the top bar to black a few days ago? (I now see that there's a link to it from said bar...)

OHHHH! It works on gitlab as well!
Would _love_if that became standard practice.
It kinda is. Across most Google products it is (gmail, music, calendar, etc). Most hotkey JS libraries I've seen also use ? as the default for seeing all of the bound hotkeys, so anyone who uses a library should have it by default too. It's always the first thing I try on a website.
Interesting. Thanks.
That's incredible.
