Ctrl+Shift+G shown as keyboard shortcut, but doesn't work when GitLens is installed

Issue Type: Bug

When I hover over the button that activates the Git panel, it tells me that Ctrl+Shift+G will activate it. But it does not. Rather, that keystroke changes the status bar to indicate it is waiting for the second chord in a multi-keystroke sequence. Pressing Ctrl+Shift+G again is rejected as a non-existent chord.

VS Code version: Code 1.24.0 (6a6e02cef0f2122ee1469765b704faf5d0e0d859, 2018-06-06T17:35:40.560Z) OS version: Windows_NT x64 10.0.17134

Can you run Preferences: Open Keyboard Shortcuts and search Show SCM to see what the binding for that is? Can you also check to see if you have any installed keymaps with Preferences: Keymaps?

[AArnott]

I don't have any installed keymaps.

Here is what I see on Open Keyboard Shortcuts:

I have not modified these directly in any way.

Thanks.

Ah, ok. It looks like the GitLens extension is using Ctrl+Shift+G as the prefix for its keybindings, which is why VSCode waits for more input. You can add "gitlens.keymap": "none" to your settings or use the Ctrl+Shift+G+G shortcut à la GitLens. Regardless, we should display the correct keybinding to open the view when you hover

This issue is caused by an extension, please file it with the repository (or contact) the extension has linked in its overview in VS Code or the marketplace for VS Code. See also our issue reporting guidelines.

Happy Coding!

Unfortunately I've gone through too many changes with key bindings conflicting with everything, so ultimately I added the quick escape hatch via gitlens.keymap which can be set to chorded (the default set), alternate (alt-based set), and none (no keybindings).

I would really love vscode to fix https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/40389 to reduce confusion, but at least for now I'm not planning on changing this.

Sorry.

Git Source Control (SCM) => "ctrl+shift+g g" Git Lends => "ctrl+shift+g shift+b"
