UX for committing and tagging is non-obvious

[doga]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

To finalize a commit, I must go back from commit description to commit summary, and then hit return. It is not obvious that the user has to go back, nor is it sensible. But maybe I am missing something.

Describe the solution you'd like

There should be a way of finalizing the commit when the commit description field is in focus (unless commit summary field is empty), such as a keyboard shortcut and/or a button.

Describe alternatives you've considered

One solution that works is to move the focus back to the commit summary field, and then hit return.

You can press shift-return to commit from the description field. The only problem with this is that it's not obvious or discoverable, but once you know it, it works quite well.

We could show the shift+enter keybinding at the bottom left of the screen to make it (slightly) more discoverable

[stefanhaller]

(It's alt-enter of course, I got that wrong.)

I was just working on adding the keybinding to the legend on the top-right when the description panel is focused; that would work well, but it gets a little crowded, and looks bad on very small screens. I'll try to add it at the bottom.

Here's a PR: #4136

Thanks. If both fields accepted the same keyboard shortcut it would be easier to remember.
