Offer bash commands possibility in config

[aymericbouzy]

I would like to implement the "checkout to primary git branch and sync" workflow. I think this is a great use case for this extension.

I'm struggling with using git.checkout command because it expects arguments, but asks for some of them via user prompt ...

Ultimately, I would simply like to be able to do git checkout develop as a bash command.

Would you consider the following config syntax?

    {
      "command": "multiCommand.checkoutDevelop",
      "sequence": [
        { "bash": "git checkout develop" },
        "git.sync"
      ]
    }

How about combining another extension like Command Runner?

You can define your multi command as:

        {
            "command": "multiCommand.checkoutDevelop",
            "sequence": [
              { "command": "command-runner.run", "args": {"command": "git checkout develop"} },
              "git.sync"
            ]
        }

I think it's a good idea to add bash command execution feature to multi-command extension, but I think it would be more flexible to combine it with an extension specialized for command execution.

Didn't know about that extension! Maybe consider mentioning it in the Readme for people looking to implement workflows like mine?

Sounds good. I will add a description of the workflow for cases like this one to README later.
