3) Rename the cloned repo to correspond the extension UUID:
$ mv gnome-shell-go-to-last-workspace gnome-shell-go-to-last-workspace@github.com
4) Pick an old working revision:
$ git checkout 6c82ffa82b869e6a97928709788f9a68b38369fa
5) Set the default hotkey:
$ gsettings --schemadir ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/gnome-shell-go-to-last-workspace@github.com/schemas set org.gnome.shell.extensions.go-to-last-workspace shortcut-key "['<Super>escape']"
6) Restart Gnome Shell:
Press Alt+F2, then type r and press enter key
Done! Hooray!
@arjan,
1) could you please add it to a wiki (you need to create it first) of this Github repo?
Or,
2) I can make a PR w/ changes to README if that works.
What do you think which variant (1) or 2)) is better?

$ rm -rf ./gnome-shell-go-to-last-workspace@github.com/2) Clone source code:
