It is certainly nice, that gonsole doesn't depend on an external git. On the other hand, occasionally it might be quite handy, if we were able to use it, because JGit is always behind in terms of features. For example, as of this writing, JGit doesn't support a global "hooks" directory.

Thank you for bringing this up. While it may certainly be useful to fall back to an external Git program, we have no plans to implement this in the near future.

Okay, that's understandable. But (again with no real idea about whether it's possible, or not): Alternative proposal: Could we have something like "Git Bash here" in a folders directory. Project Explorer would be just fine.

It seems there are a lot of plug-ins out there to open a shell for a given folder. See here, for example: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1562600/is-there-an-eclipse-plugin-to-run-system-shell-in-the-console

Is it that what you are looking for?

Thanks very much. That sounds like what I'd like to have exactly. Assuming, that the command is configurable.
