Is there a way to save all files, commit and upload in one command in Visual Studio Code

Question

I find myself doing a lot of hotfixes on my code, and I have to test on a remote machine. In visual studio code, is there a way to set up a macro that will

1. save all open files
2. commit changes (with blank or random commit message)
3. upload all commits

Thanks!

To do this, you need to run multiple commands at once, so you will need an extension. With ryuta46.multi-command, and this configuration, Ctrl+Alt+S will save and push all of your files

settings.json (Ctrl+,):

{
    "multiCommand.commands": [{
        "command":"multiCommand.syncAllFiles",
        "sequence": [
            "workbench.action.files.saveAll",
            {
                "command": "workbench.action.tasks.runTask",
                "args": "syncAll"
            },
            "workbench.action.terminal.toggleTerminal"
        ]
    }]
}

I've added a command to toggle the terminal after the command is run so that it doesnt stay open every time you run the command. Unfortunately, it happens even if the terminal was already open, so if you don't want it to do that, just remove that line

keybindings.json (Ctrl+K Ctrl+S):

{
  "key": "ctrl+alt+s",
  "command": "extension.multiCommand.execute",
  "args": { "command": "multiCommand.syncAllFiles" },
},

tasks.json:

{
    "tasks": [
        {
            "label": "syncAll",
            "type": "shell",
            "command": "git add .;git commit -m 'Automatic Commit';git pull;git push",
        }
    ]
}
