Git: Merge in only one commit
- by Ivan
Usually, I work with branches in Git, but I don't like to see hundreds of branches in my working tree (Git history). I'm wondering if there is a method in Git to "join" all commits in a branch in only one commit (ideally with a clear commit message).
Something like this:
git checkout -b branch
<some work>
git commit -a -m "commit 1"
<some work>
git commit -a -m "commit 2"
<some work>
git commit -a -m "commit 3"
git checkout master
git SUPER-JOIN branch -m "super commit"
After this, only "super commit" will exist in the git log.
