# Objective The Git Panel exposes the `ChangesList` key context while its list is focused, including when the History tab is active. This causes Changes-only keybindings to match in History and provides no context for History-specific bindings. This is a fresh submission of the revised change from #63669, as requested in that PR's discussion. Fixes #61012 ## Solution Select the list key context from the active Git Panel tab. Changes exposes `ChangesList`, while History exposes `HistoryList`. The shared `GitPanel` and `menu` contexts remain unchanged. Preserve compatible keyboard behavior by sharing navigation, confirmation, and cancellation bindings between `ChangesList` and `HistoryList` on macOS, Linux, Windows, and Vim. File, staging, restore, and commit-editor bindings remain exclusive to `ChangesList`. Extend the dispatch-context test to verify that the list contexts are mutually exclusive and absent while the commit editor is focused. ## Testing - `cargo fmt --package git_ui -- --check` - `./script/check-keymaps` - `git diff --check` - `cargo test -p git_ui test_dispatch_context_with_focus_states -- --nocapture` - `cargo test -p git_ui` (153 passed) - `cargo build -p zed` - Manually verified on macOS that History reports `HistoryList` without `ChangesList`, arrow navigation selects commits, and Enter opens the selected commit - Linux and Windows keymaps were updated and checked, but not manually exercised on those platforms ## Self-Review Checklist: - [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability - [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments - [x] The content adheres to Zed's UI standards ([UX/UI](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) and [icon](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/crates/icons/README.md) guidelines) - [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior - [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable ## Showcase The Keyboard Context view shows `GitPanel`, `menu`, and `HistoryList` while the History tab is focused. `ChangesList` is absent.  --- Release Notes: - Fixed Git Panel keybindings matching the Changes tab while the History tab is active.
