git-squash

Git squash easy way

This small script mimics what GitHub's Squash portion does for their Squash and merge option on a Pull Request. It basically means you can easily squash all your commits into a single commit with this script without having to deal with finding out the first commit on your current branch that does not exist on the target branch.

Installation

• Download git-squash and place it in a path that is in $PATH

Global installation

sudo curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/techgaun/git-squash/main/git-squash -o /usr/local/bin/git-squash && sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/git-squash

Local installation

Assuming the local path ($HOME/.bin in this example) is in $PATH:

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/techgaun/git-squash/main/git-squash -o "${HOME}"/.bin/git-squash && chmod u+x "${HOME}"/.bin/git-squash

Usage

• Make sure your current branch does not have merge conflicts with target branch

git merge main
git squash main
