Enhancement: Non-technical user actions to publish a site #377

Description

@apowell656

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have a few people that want to use static sites and the demos I shared with them were all from VSC using Front Matter. Each one of them was like "Wow, that is so much smoother than WordPress/Wix. That is how I want to manage my site." Then I watch their eyes glaze when I run git pull/add/commit/push.

Describe the solution you'd like
Two native actions (assuming node and unfortunately that is not my bag) - Download (git pull) and Publish (git add, commit - with a generic message, and push) added to the "Actions" menu kind of like the "Open site preview" button.

Describe alternatives you've considered
I thought about writing something in Python or Java to do this, but I don't think it is very portable for the environments the user may have or the SSG they are using. Oh, did I mention they are not very technical ;-)
