Locally squash commits on a branch, without needing to resolve any conflicts 🧈. It works just like GitHub's "Squash and merge" or GitLab's "Squash commits".

QUESTION
Is there a way/command on git to "distribute" the changes made to some files to the last commit that modified each file?
On many occasions I notice a small typo (mostly on comments: missing comma, closing a parenthesis, some small grammar error... ) in already committed files. I would like to fixup the last commit on each file to add the small fix. Is that possible without having to manually do a commit, run rebase --interactive
, move the commit up, mark it as a fixup
of the previous commit...
For instance: Let's say I have this situation:

Yes, rebase
will do this for you. See its --autosquash
option.
- Mark your commits with
git commit --fixup=
pointing to the commit you want to fix up. (Message-search syntax can be very handy:--fixup=@^{/somewordfromitssubject}
.) - Create as many fixup commits as you want.
git rebase -i --autosquash theoldestfixedupcommit^
.
QUESTION
I try to run
git rebase -i HEAD~N
to squash my older commits into one. But sometimes I got a Merge conflict. The problem is, even if I resolve the conflict and do a "git rebase --continue", I lost a lot of my other commit changes.
I also tried to solve the issue based on these answers: Git squash all commits in branch without conflicting

QUESTION
I have a remote with a history that looks like this:
As you can see O and P are merge commits and both of them closed their old branch so now there's only one branch.
I want to squash C-D-E-G-J-K-L-N into one commit and F-H-I-M into an other commit because they are just tiny commits cluttering the history.
Locally I managed to squash C-D-E-G-J-K-L-N using the method described in the answer by John O'M. to this question, like this:
...ANSWER
Answered 2017-May-17 at 15:49You essentially have a choice to make: do you wish to make everyone use the replacement references, or do you prefer to rewrite the entire repository and make everyone have a big flag-day during which they switch from "old repository" to "new repository"? Neither method is particularly fun or profitable. :-)
How replacements workWhat git replace
does is to add a new object into the Git repository and give it a name in the refs/replace/
name-space. The name in this name-space is the hash ID of the object that the new object replaces. For instance, if you're replacing commit 1234567...
, the name of the new object (whose ID is not 1234567...
—for concreteness, let's say it's fedcba9...
instead) is refs/replace/1234567...
.
The rest of Git, when looking for objects, checks first to see if there is a refs/replace/
object. If so (and replacing is not disabled), the rest of Git then returns the object to which the refs/replace/
name points, instead of the actual object. So when some other part of Git reads some commit that says "my parent commit is 1234567...
", that other part of Git goes to find 1234567...
, sees that refs/replace/1234567...
exists, and returns object fedcba9...
instead. You then see the replacement.
If you do not have the reference refs/replace/1234567...
, though, your Git never swaps in the replacement object. (This is true whether or not you have the replacement object. It's the reference itself that causes the replacement to occur. Having the reference guarantees that you have the object.)
Hence, for some other Git to execute this same replacement process, you must deliver the refs/replace/
reference to that other Git.
In general, you would push such objects with:

I've looked at all the possible answers on SO and also have read blogs but I think I've messed up pretty bad.
I tried -
git rebase -i upstream/master
and then changing pick
to squash
after the first line, but I was getting merge conflicts again and again. So finally I read an answer on SO which recommended this -
