XCode 4's Commit interface is great. However I am really lazy and I want to commit without the use of a mouse.

cmd-alt-c brings up the commit dialogue. However, when I type no text appears because the lower text box is not in focus. How do I move the focus to the message dialogue using a shortcut key?

  • But it is not programming related question.. – Krishnabhadra May 06 '11 at 10:54
  • It's a question about the programming IDE and the 3rd of the four general types of questions to ask here is "software tools commonly used by programmers." This is the right place for the question. – Matthew Frederick May 06 '11 at 11:11

    Also, I wish I knew the answer, as it drives me nuts every time. Cmd-Opt-C to commit, then hand over to the mouse, find the cursor, click in the box, *then* type, and then use the mouse again to get out. Very annoying. – Matthew Frederick May 06 '11 at 11:14

Pressing shift + tab twice moves the focus to the commit message. So you can type the commit message.

However, I have found no shortcut to actually make the commit.
