Does SourceTree have an Open With

[Philip Cannata]

When I click right on a file, I see "Open"but not and "Open With". Is it possible to add this to the menu?

There's already a feature request: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/SRCTREEWIN-875

... but Atlassian implemented it in a more generic way (at least in SourceTree for Windows):

• In the context menu you find an entry: "Custom action". This can be used to call an external application with the given file
• The custom action can be configured via "Tools->Options->Custom Actions" ...

Hope that helps ...

[Philip Cannata]

Thanks for teh response, but I don't see "Tools"

Are you using SourceTree on Windows or Mac?

[Philip Cannata]

I'm using SourceTree on Mac

[Seth]

The above solution is Windows-only. I use Windows as well, so I don't know if there is a solution on Mac.

[Philip Cannata]

On the Mac, if I go to "Actions->Custom Actions" the menu has no items, bummer.

[Seth]

You'd have to create the actions yourself. You'll need to know the command line arguments to launch a file into the software you want.

[Philip Cannata]

The command line would be open -a /Applications/TextWrangler.app myfile.txt but where do I put it, i.e., how do I create and action with this command line?

In windows, the Custom Actions window has an "Add" button. When I click that it has me give the action a name, specify the script, and specify the parameters. It lists the variables you can use in the parameters ($REPO, $FILE, and $SHA).
