feat(commands): add Git Command Palette #34
Description
Description
Add a Git Command Palette providing a guided, searchable interface for executing Git operations with step-by-step assistance and parameter collection.
Note: This feature provides an alternative command-line interface for Git operations. Many of these operations also have dedicated tool windows that provide richer UI experiences. The Command Palette offers quick keyboard-driven access to the same functionality.
