Sublime Text 3: How to jump to the parent/enclosing function?

Question

Is there a quick keyboard shortcut or Command Palette function to quickly jump to the parent/enclosing function?

So if the cursor is in a function, then I want to quickly jump to the first line of that function.

I looked around but was unable to find such a shortcut.

Jump to matching brackets is easy!

Stand on some braces(brackets, parentheses) and press: Ctrl+M(Mac ^+M).

`Ctrl`+`R`(Mac `⌘`+`R`) was very helpful for me - I came across this post trying to find a way to see the current "scope" of where my cursor was (ie the containing function). This allowed me to do that and then press `Esc` to get back to the cursor position. – user1063287 Jun 13 '19 at 02:58

On Windows, press CONTROL + R which lists all the functions in the file with the current function selected. Now, Press ENTER

Sublime Move By Symbols allows you to navigate between symbols, so if your cursor is inside a function, then ctrl+up will move it to the function name.
