I\'ve imported my project from the svn repo, and it imported all the commit history along way. I\'m not real

If you'd like to reduce all your history to a single "Initial import" commit, simply remove .git directory and create a new local repository (keeping a backup of the old one). git init . && git add . && git commit -m "Initial import".

Such new repository won't have a common ancestor with the one you've pushed to GitHub, so you'll have to git push --force your newly created repository.
