      Sourcetree for Mac supports adding keyboard shortcuts for custom actions. It would be incredibly useful to add this for windows as well.  

            [SRCTREEWIN-12960] Add shortcuts for custom actions in Windows

            Rob Mc Gee added a comment - - edited

            For anyone who'd also like this, I have a flaky workaround for a very specific need I have - wanting to open multiple repos in a single windows terminal window. I only have one custom action for this very purpose:

            After creating this, open the repo tab you want in source tree. 

            By default, my tab does not select any files and just highlights this:

            This may be important as it could mess up the next bit.

            The bottom of my Actions menu looks like this here:

            From here with the sourcetree window in focus, hit the following keys in this order, not all together:

            Alt, A, Up, Enter and Enter again. 

            Assuming you only have one customer action, it should have just activated.

            If you have multiple you can move up/down before hitting the final Enter to select from them.

            This is far from ideal but with some muscle memory it'll work for me.. although I'm having a hard time justifying using sourcetree as-is since I prefer my own powershell aliases to run git commands. 

            I've also heard this tool is good for automating certain keypresses so might help here: https://www.autohotkey.com/

             

            Please just add proper shortcut controls.

            It would be super useful! Please keep this task under consideration.

            I mean, it's already there in the macOS version, I don't understand why not in the Windows version...
