Are there any Git command to combine all our ugly commits together to one?

I’ve downloaded public git repo and fixed some stuff. I made several commits, mostly with random messages like “dsadsadsadasd”. Now I want to push back those changes but not as 10 messy commits but as one with good message. How can I merge those commits into one before pushing?

Answer 1

git reset --soft origin/branchname
git add -A
git commit -C HEAD@{1}

That’s the fastest way to do it. Replace -C HEAD@{1} with -m "some other message" if you want a new message instead of the last one that you put in.

Hope this helps.
