I have copied a URL, such as git://. I want to paste this in the terminal using a keyboard shortcut.
Please don't say "right click and paste."

Gnome terminal defaults to ControlShiftv
OSX terminal defaults to Commandv. You can also use CommandControlv to paste the text in escaped form.
Windows 7 terminal defaults to CtrlShiftInsert
1Shift + Insert usually works throughout X11.
4Mostly likely middle click your mouse.
Or try Shift + Insert.
It all depends on terminal used and X11-config for mouse.
1same for Terminator
Ctrl + Shift + V
Look at your terminal key-bindings if any if that doesn't work
In Konsole (KDE terminal) is the same, Ctrl + Shift + V
On windows 7:
Ctrl + Shift + Ins
works for me!
