SVN key bindings not working in Eclipse

Question

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

Answer 1

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). Customize Perspective dialog screenshot
