Learn Git Squash in 3 minutes // explained with live animations! 

I've been a dev for 15 years, and I've never used squash. Thanks for the tutorial!

you were my lifesaver at my first week in my first dev job.

Love how you don't skip out on the VIM commands.

Great video!!. Just a note for newbies like me, @1:30 "Accessibility bug fix" is not the latest commit. @2:11 Jack is sqaushing the newer/latest commits (Number 2 & 3) into an older commit "Accessibility bug fix" (Number 1).

Terrific short video. Clear animation. Clear narrative. Great job!

I used to have a headache when try to clean the commit but your vids make it soo much clearer

your work is cleaner and concise and actually practical and related to work. thanks for creating practical tuts. hoping to see some more stuuff from you. peace out.

Never used git squash. heard about it. you make it so simple. always thought how can I combine my commits. and here it is "git squash". splendid short clip on "git squash" that made my life much easier. GRATITUDE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mathew. K from Colorado

I think it was important to mention that if you want to push your modification in a repo, you must use force push.

Thank you for keeping it short and not making a 10 minute video out of this to please the gods And thank you for the clear explanation, too

Just a tip about all your videos: when trying to help people with vim, saying 'ESC : W Q' and printing these uppercase characters on screen could confuse some people as it is necessary that they are lowercase!

Best one i found on this subject, love the animation and presentation! Great, Thx!

Really liked how clean the video was

Cannot thank you enough for all the efforts and time you are investing. One of the best programming tutorials. Cheers!

Nice job! Finally I've founded understandable tutorials for git workflow.

Mate you are spot on the topic! so many other tutorial on your tube make confuse with other stuff! I liked the way you explained! I know now how to Squash! Thank you

best squash video on youtube. thank you very much! the graph combine with the command line is a true life saver!

Best explanation and example of this feature that I have seen. Excellent

I need this type of explanation. On point 💯no unnecessay info. Thank you!!

The best and simple explanation of squash !! Congrats.

I was a dev for over a decade. And it's only now that I'm a software manager that I actually had to learn how to squash my commits. LOL Thanks for the tutorial.

Extremely clear, focused, well produced and easy to follow. Nice work. Great kitchen too!

wow, that was the most comprehensive squash tutorial I have seen, made my life a lot easier, liked and sub'd. Thank you so much!

Love how you explain stuff. The production value of your videos is fantastic!

I liked how you got rid of the messages of the old commits by commenting them out. I typically delete them.

Thanks a lot, that was exactly what i need. I do desktop apps (with native GUI frameworks) and need to always test on all platforms and i'm using git as a file sync tool, so i have lots of commits.in my branch just for that purpose. Now i need a to write a little script that will automatically squash all empty commit messages into the last one with a message. Nice.

Thanks you for explaining each and every step and not just assuming I know how to use vim like other tutorials seem to do. Even though I do, it really helps to be able to follow exactly what you are doing.

An extremely lucid explanation. Bravo.

You are a great communicator.

Excellent one and upto the point. I was looking for squashing my commits and this helped. Thanks!

This is great explanation. REBASE VS MERGE are the horror stories of software engineers.

I really liked this guys way of explaining. You just earned a subscriber pal.

You are the Absolute Best!! I am gonna watch all your videos, Top stuff!!!!

Your Git tutorials are just neat and simple. Thanks for the effort! Quite useful.

You explanations are neat, clear and well presented. Great job! Thank you!

You have the skills to teach! Please continue doing it.. waiting for some more vids from you!

One git command explanation video that works :)

Thank you for posting this video, very well explained and clear, you definitely saved my life trying to do my first squash on git bash.

understood squash completely thanks!!

Excellent presentation!

Thanks to your feedback on this video and my rebasing video (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-f1wnYdLEpgI.html ), I created another video in the same style that goes in depth about other ways you can manipulate git history - including amending, rewording, deleting, reordering and splitting commits - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ElRzTuYln0M.html. Check it out if you enjoyed this video, I think you'll find a lot of value there!

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for wonderful explanation.

Wow, great production. Instant sub! 🙏🏻

Dude, thank you. That was so helpful. I've had a super hard time finding good info on this. Definitely subscribing.

Thank you very much. Simple and easy explanation

straight to the point, no bull shit. Love it.

This is how Git tutorials should be done. Show exactly how the tree looks like at each step, so students can better understand what is going on

man, the explanation is really cool 🔥🔥🔥 Thanks buddy!!

Thanks for this. Will definitely help me clean up the work I contribute to shared repos.

0:41 example demo 1:20 git rebase -i HEAD~3 1:56 squash 2:05 meaning: going to take the last 2 commits and melt them into the first commit 3:04

aboslutely great vid - presentation AND content-wise!

Thank you so much, this video helped me alot. Many thanks!

This is very nice explanation it helped me a lot ♥ ♥

Good video with nice details. I like the visual explanation in git and the commands used in VIM (always hated that)

Thanks I never understood why second file was opening. Thanks alot

Thank you for these awesome tutorials!!

You can use tool I've written for squashing all commits on a branch: github.com/sheerun/git-squash (just like GitHub's squash and merge)

Outstanding tutorials. Big thumbs up. Many thanks

Awesome ❤❤ Need more advanced git tutorials like this.

This is GOLD!

Awesome video! Well explained. Subbed!

It's a nice explanation with visuals.

giving a like before the video starts, so I don't accidentally forget

Really great content, thanks for making it right to the point.

just found out your channel, i love these clear and objective explanations. +1 this week i dealt with some uncomfortable situation , i just pushed a branch that i created whose original parent was a wrong branch, and it went with all the wrong's branch commit history and i didn't knew how to solve that, what would you do?

Very clear explanation! Thanks!

Thank you for all the informative videos you share with us ))

Thanks, this makes the work pretty easy.

great explanation. Subscribed!

Neat and sweet! Thanks much!

it worked. I am happy :)

good explanation 👌

Nice video and well explained. You could have showed us the output of "git log" before and after the operation, but your visualizations do the same job so it's cool. Are the separate commits recoverable after the squash operation or are they lost forever?

Thank you, this helped me. I didn't know what I was supposed to do when updating the commit message, I was thinking of deleting everything included the commented out lines, but you showed me that there was no need, once you save with the new message, git throws out anything with a # in front.

What he did in this video can be achieved by using "fixup" instead of "squash", it's like squash, but discards the commit messages of the squashed commits :D

Very helpful, thank you
