Currently, the only time the "Commit Action" dropdown menu has more than 2 options is when files are being added. Any other time, it only has the choices to "Commit" or "Exclude from commit." I think it would make sense to implement this as a checkbox instead of a drop-down menu, much like how TortoiseSVN does it. (This would also open up the option to implement a "check/uncheck all" checkbox to go along with it.) When files are being added however, the "Commit Action" dropdown currently has 3 values: "Add as Text," "Add as Binary," or "Exclude from commit." The checkbox mentioned above could still control whether the file is included or excluded from the commit. Then a second checkbox could represent the Text/Binary choice. These changes would save clicks and present the information more clearly.
