How to use git merge --squash?

Question

I have a remote Git server, here is the scenario which I want to perform:

• For each bug/feature I create a different Git branch

• I keep on com

Answer 1

You want to merge with the squash option. That's if you want to do it one branch at a time.

git merge --squash feature1

If you want to merge all the branches at the same time as single commits, then first rebase interactively and squash each feature then octopus merge:

git checkout feature1
git rebase -i master

Squash into one commit then repeat for the other features.

git checkout master
git merge feature1 feature2 feature3 ...

That last merge is an "octopus merge" because it's merging a lot of branches at once.

Hope this helps
