Close matching tag with Sublime Text

#sublime text
#html

Alt + . to close a matching tag.

<a>link here

becomes

<a>link here</a>

Sublime Text knows which tag to close and clicking the shortcut repeatedly would close more and more tags in the order they have been opened. And there is a great shortcut for that!

#sublime text
#html
