问题
I have a branch with about 20 commits.
The first SHA on the branch is bc3c488...
The last SHA on the branch is 2c2be6...
How can I merge all the commits together?
I want to do this without using interactive rebase as there are so many commits.
I need this for a github Pull Request where I am being asked to merge my commits.
Need to do this without doing a git merge --squash as I need to squash locally and another developer does the merge and wants me to do the squash first before merging.
回答1:
If the first SHA is HEAD you can also use this approach:
git reset --soft $OLD_SHA; git add -A; git commit --amend --no-edit
be careful, this command will change the history of the repo.
If you want to squash commits that are in the middle of your history:
|---* --- 0 --- 1 ---- 2 --- 3 --- * --- * --- * --- HEAD
like in this case the commits 1, 2 and 3
I would really recommend to use rebase -i
回答2:
you can use the interactive shell in git rebase to selectively pick which commits to rebase.
git rebase -i bc3c488...
then change the commits that you want to squash to say squash instead of pick

Interactive rebasing can help here.
Let's say your branch is based off of your upstream's master branch. (and let's say your upstream is defined by the "upstream" remote)
Do this:
git rebase -i upstream/master
"upstream/master" can be replaced by any SHA if you need to be more exact.
git rebase -i bc3c488
You will be placed in an editor defined by your $EDITOR environment variable. Change "pick" to "squash" (or "s" for short) for every line except the very top one. This is squashing all those commits into one.
As with any merge or rebase against another line of work there is the possibility of a code conflict. If this occurs, do a "git status" to see which files are conflicted, edit those files (the conflict will be delimited with <<< and >>> symbols) and do a "git rebase --continue"
Rebasing replays commit's one at a time, keep this in mind if you find yourself fixing the same conflict over and over again (there are tools to help with this as well).
You will then be presented with an opportunity to edit the commit message for your new squashed commit.
Push to your remote branch with -f (this re-writes history which you want, but be careful with this one).
This is a pretty good tutorial on interactive rebasing: https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/rewriting-history/git-rebase-i

# non dangerous implementation that creates a new branch.
git checkout 2c2be6
git rebase -i bc3c488~
git checkout -b your_new_squashed_branch
# then squash the commits by replacing the pick with s
The tilda (~) at the end of the commit means previous commit;
Ensuring commit bc3c488 is visible on the interactive rebase.
# dangerous implementation that rewrites history
git checkout -b new_branch_with_rewritten_history
git reset --hard 2c2be6
git rebase -i bc3c488~
# then squash the commits by replacing the pick with s
