<Control + b>: (which could Ctrl-B or Ctrl-A if you overidden it) then source-file ~/.tmux.conf

Our prefix/leader key is Control + a now (just like the screen multiplexer). This sequence must be typed before any tmux shortcut.

Control + a before any command
Control + a then ? to bring up list of keyboard shortcuts
Control + a then " to split window
Control + a then <Space> to change pane arrangement
Control + a then o to rotate panes
Control + a then h, j, k, l to move left, down, up, right. Respectively. (vim hjkl)
Control + a then ; to go to last panel
