Public bug reported:

The upstream 3.x branch of gitg is an almost complete rewrite that
changes the very nature of the program. For example, the new version
packaged for Xenial completely lacks any visible keyboard shortcuts and
has many other obstructions for my daily work flow that have been newly
introduced - gitg became useless to me (even gitk and git-gui seem to be
better(!)). It would be better to deprecate/remove gitg and add the
3.x-based versions of gitg as a new package to communicate this change.

I cannot dedicate enough time to maintain a fork on my own but I am more
than willing to join anybody who want to cooperate on this...
