Git Square: the branch operation process of version online code

Merge all commit (modifications) on a branch into one commit:
git merge --squash feature

Applicable scenarios:
This version has been modified a lot, and there are too many commits
1. For the convenience of viewing all modifications of a version in the future;
2. It is possible to roll back the merge online for the convenience of rolling back;
3. Make the whole version history of master clear and tidy;
Use this command whenever possible.

Examples:

Branch: master main branch, feature development branch

First, merge the master code into the feature branch to solve the code conflict between the branches;
featue > git merge master

After the conflict is resolved, open a new online branch release from the master
master > git checkout -b release

On the release branch, merge develops the branch feature
release > git merge --squash feature

After execution, GIT status will view the current branch status, and you will see that all the modifications on the feature branch have been on the online branch release and are in the uncommitted state. At this time, GIT commit will merge all the modifications into one commit
Release > git commit - am "version XXX, modify XXX, go online"

Then push online branch to gitlab warehouse
release > git push origin release

Finally, submit merge request on gitlab and apply for online
