Have custom guitools defined for git gui in a menu.

[frogonwheels]

It would be nice to be able to see (and edit) the tools defined for git gui in menus under git-cola.
For example:
guitool.Merge/Resolve All Merges.cmd=git mergetool --no-prompt

"Actions" menu could be a good place to put it.. or possibly its own.

commands: Add a RunConfigAction command

This implements the git guitool.*.cmd interface as documented
in git-config(1).

Are guitool launches supposed to be blocking git-cola GUI?

I'd like to define system wide guitools that keep git-cola functional, similar to Terminal and Editor launches.

@lkraav good idea! Now we can git config guitool.$name.background true and it'll launch in the command in the background.

Yay yay! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvjzVG047vQ

Lots of goodies in 2.0.3+ now. Can you cut a 2.0.4? I don't think I'll be bugging you for a while after this.. everything's there! ;)

[davvid]

Thanks ;-) Yeah, it's just about time for the monthly release. I'll tag the repo before the end of the week for sure.

I'm not entirely sure this is working correctly.

Simple guitool

/etc/gitconfig

[guitool "File Manager"]
    background = true
    cmd = urxvt -e ranger

When launching it, I get

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "/usr/share/git-cola/lib/cola/cmds.py", line 1343, in do_cmd
return cmd.do()

File "/usr/share/git-cola/lib/cola/cmds.py", line 981, in do

Thanks for the heads-up, it works with mixed-case names now.
