Git squash last 2 commits into 1 commit

Quick solution:

xxxxxxxxxx

git rebase -i HEAD~2

Flow:

• git rebase --interactive HEAD~2
• change first word of second line from "pick" to "squash"
• :wq (git bash write and quit)
• 2 commit messages will show up
• usually we remove second message and leave only first message or we change first message
• push our local branch to remote with force - git push -f

First command:

xxxxxxxxxx

$ git rebase -i HEAD~2

​

pick 7357fca Commit 1

pick fc8bc9b Commit 2

Change pick to squash:

xxxxxxxxxx

$ git rebase -i HEAD~2

​

pick 7357fca Commit 1

squash fc8bc9b Commit 2

xxxxxxxxxx

git commit --amend --date="now"

xxxxxxxxxx

2,17s/pick/squash/g

Above command will replace pick with squash from 2nd to 17th line (commit).

If we have 5 commits to squash then:

xxxxxxxxxx

2,5s/pick/squash/g

TODO: find pick only at the beginning of the line.
