Description
To be able to notify some external services it will be great to have one-shot exec mode.
Issues of using template commands for this purpose:
- It is per-template - there is no way to know when all templates are done.
- It is not executed if no changes are required(file already exists)

Contributor guide
Research direction
Review the related thread in issue #1011 first, then trace the existing template command and execution entry points in the repository. Define how one-shot execution detects completion of all templates and behaves when no files change; the feature is done when both notification cases are covered.
