Squashing Commits

1. git rebase -i main
2. Replace pick at the start of each line except the top line with s( which stands for squash) then save.

Example:

pick 47a32d7e WIP: first Commit
s bc0037a1 WIP: second Commit
s c5b81945 WIP: third Commit

3. You should now be able to reword the first commit with the normal because and This commit template we use - example here

4. Pushing to remote

   If you have already pushed to the remote previously

   Warning: only force push if you are the only one working with on the branch. Never force push to branches anyone else is working on, and especially never force push to the main branch

   • You will have to force push your branch because your commits have been rebased: git push -f

   Otherwise, if this is the first time pushing the branch to the remote

   • Then push as normal git push
