How to squash a commit made in the GitHub website?

I did a little editing in a file on my GitHub repository through the website and then committed the changes. It's not like changing a file, committing and then pushing it to the origin, I did it directly by going to the website. Now there are two commits in that branch. Can I squash the last commit from the terminal? If not, is there any way I can squash it from the GitHub website?

I'm not a native English speaker. So, pardon my bad English.

Solution

  • I don't think you can do it from the website itself. But you can do it from the terminal.

    # Pull in the remote changes
$ git pull

# Rebase the last 2 commits interactively
$ git rebase -i HEAD~2
pick abcdef commit to keep
squash 123456 commit to squash

# Override the remote branch
$ git push -f origin <branch>
