MacOs Swiss/French keyboard annoying conflict
已回答
This is a small thing, but reeeeeeeally annoying...
In IntelliJ 2021.1 if you press `option + g` you get the Git menu, but unfortunately on the Swiss/French keyboard you use that combination to type `@`. So, every time I want to add an annotation, the git menu opens and I have to click somewhere to get rid of it.
Is there anything that I can do to avoid this annoying behavior?

Hi,
This and similar keyboard layout-related issues are discussed in IDEA-165950. The solution is work-in-progress.
See if workarounds suggested in this comment help.
See this article if you are not familiar with YouTrack.
Thank you for your reply Arina Efremova, the workarounds do not work for me (the national layout is enabled by default on mac, and even by disabling it nothing changed, and the plugin does not have a Swiss/French entry)
You are welcome @....
Guess we will have to wait for a universal solution from our dev team then.
As a shameful workaround I created a template that will actually produce a `@`, so now I type `anno` and I get `@` without the git menu opening...
As another workaround, you can just remap the Git tool window's key binding to something else under Preferences | Keymap, and remove the Option+G shortcut.
The problem is that it is not an IntelliJ shortcut, in fact under Keymap I have Command + 9, it is a MacOS thing, most likely because the Git menu starts with "G" and by pressing Option + G I am activating the Mac shortcuts for the topbar that use the initial letter to select a value (with Option + F I get File, etc).
As far as I know, I cannot configure that on MacOs they just work in this way (but I am not a Mac expert).
Hmm, see if maybe disabling the following option helps:
Aah! It works! Thanks Arina Efremova !
Happy to help @....
Sorry for thinking it was a different issue at first.
