Quality of life feature requests: Add right-click context menus to open files, file locations. Make it easy for us to execute custom git commands

#1

Loving Sublime Merge! It’s so fast <3. But it could use a couple of quality of life features:

Tree-View
The tree-view feature might be a big ask, and since I couldn’t find any requests for it yet I’m probably in the minority? I generally find the UI for file changes a bit odd.

Right-clicking files
But damn those other simple features would just make my life so much better. I don’t know how many times I’ve tried right-clicking a file to simply open it or its destination only to frustratingly find out, again and again, that right-clicking doesn’t do anything. It’s just not natural!

Shortcut to open CMD / Git Bash / whatever
I don’t expect Sublime Merge to cover all of the git-commands I need, so make it easy for me to type in custom git commands somehow.

Shortcut to open the folder of the repository.
Well what can I say. It’s frustrating not having it :smile:

I don’t think anyone has requested that in the Sublime Merge issue tracker.

See https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_merge/issues/178

See https://github.com/sublimehq/sublime_merge/issues/186
Note that there is a menu item to open the folder: Repository -> Reveal in Finder (or similar)
