Since Git Gui is maintained separate from Git, patches are expected to be based on top of the Git Gui tree [0]. I fixed it up and applied the patch on my tree. > @@ -3812,6 +3812,8 @@ bind $ui_comm <$M1B-Key-KP_Subtract> {show_less_context;break} > bind $ui_comm <$M1B-Key-equal> {show_more_context;break} > bind $ui_comm <$M1B-Key-plus> {show_more_context;break} > bind $ui_comm <$M1B-Key-KP_Add> {show_more_context;break} > +bind $ui_comm <Control-Key-BackSpace> {event generate %W <Meta-Delete>;break} > +bind $ui_comm <Control-Key-Delete> {event generate %W <Meta-d>;break} Don't use "Control" directly to maintain compatibility with MacOS. Use $M1B like the surrounding code does. I fixed it up locally, so no need to send in a new version. You can find the fixed up version here [1]. Test it if you'd like. Will merge it in. Thanks.
