In the past weeks I (with Pavel support) have implemented and pushed
the concept of "custom actions".

Is it possible to associate commands sequences, scripts and anything
else executable to a custom action. Actions can be called and run from
menu entry and corresponding output is grabbed by a terminal window.

Instead of hard code each git-native command, this way you have a
flexible framework to add shortcuts and menu entry for anything you
would like to be a click away. BTW I use this for stuff like git pull,
but also for 'make' and 'make install' because you have a window
terminal for feedback.

There is also the possibility to input command line parameters before
to run, useful, as example for a git pull action that asks for source
repository to pull from.

Is this something that can fulfill you request? do you need something
different?  perhaps something as a "default to current selected SHA as
input argument" flag.
