Struct RootMenu 

pub struct RootMenu {
    pub source: &'static str,
    pub chord: Option<&'static str>,
    pub action: &'static str,
    pub doc: &'static str,
}

dispatch_transient with the gates supplied rather than probed — pure, and the form every guard over this menu uses. MG.49: one root menu — reachable from the dispatch and from its own chord.

Emacs binds these on magit-mode-map, the parent keymap every magit-derived mode inherits, so z opens stash from the log buffer and the diff buffer as much as from status. magit-core-mode is the same shape here, which is why the chords live there rather than on magit-status-mode.

Chords follow evil-collection-magit, the reference this crate already uses for gr / O / x — so push is p, not magit’s P (p is free in a read-only buffer; P is not, being paste).

Fields

source: &'static str

Registered TransientSourceRegistry name, and the string the chord’s Effect::OpenTransient names.

chord: Option<&'static str>

The chord magit-core-mode binds, or None when the key is a live vim chord in a read-only buffer and the menu is reachable only through the dispatch.

This is the constraint emacs does not have. Magit binds all seventeen on magit-mode-map because emacs is not modal. Here a minor-mode layer beats the builtin vim layer, so binding f would take find-char away inside every magit buffer — and a magit buffer is text you navigate. Vim’s grammar IS the public command API (paramount goal #3), so it wins: only keys whose vim meaning is an editing operator — inert where nothing is editable — are free to take.

action: &'static str

The action the chord fires.

doc: &'static str

Keymap documentation.
