I installed Eclipse 3.6 64-bit on a fresh Windows 7.
I tried setting some key bindings using the Keys section of the preferences window, namely:

  • Alt + C – commit using SVN

  • Alt + U – update using SVN

  • Alt + R – revert using SVN

It all worked flawlessly in the past on Eclipse 3.5 32bit on Windows XP, but it just doesn’t work in my recent setup. When I’m navigating to the ‘Team’ menu, the shortcuts do appear next to the aforementioned actions (i.e. Eclipse writes Alt + U next to ‘Update to HEAD’).

Any suggestions?

    It may be due to this breaking change in Eclipse 3.6:

    EDIT:

    Looks like it definitely is. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=309074. Here’s the fix:

    In the “Customize Perspective” dialog, go to the “Command Groups Availability” tab and check “Team” and “SVN”.

    In Eclipse Mars.2 (4.5.2) this is under Window->Perspective->Customize Perspective… dialog, “Action Set Availability” tab. (Try to restart Eclipse if it doesn’t work after you change it).
