How / can I display a console window in Intellij IDEA?

Is it possible to have a console window / command-line interface as part of the Intellij IDEA UI? I'd rather go command-line for certain actions, like working with GIT or kicking off build-processes, but at the moment that means keeping a separate console window open and alt-tabbing.

Is there some form of integrated console? And even better than that, can it automatically point at my project root by default?
