Combine or rebase an arbitrarily large number of commits

Question

Let\'s say my local git log shows:

739b36d3a314483a2d4a14268612cd955c6af9fb a
...
c42fff47a257b72ab3fabaa0bcc2be9cd50d5c89 x
c4149ba120b30955a92         


        

Answer 1

One option is git rebase -i @{u}. I use this frequently enough that I've aliased it as git freebase (since it works on the commits that you can freely rebase).

In case you're not familiar, @{u} is a shortcut for @{upstream}, or "the upstream of the current branch".
