How to do rebase --interactive in a Windows GUI

问题:

I have a co-worker who's wedded to the git GUI interface for Windows; I'd like to get him rebasing interactively so he can squash commits.

I've tried using the Tools->Add to add git rebase --interactive but this just hangs when he tries it. Can the client handle interactive rebases? Is there another GUI client for Windows that can? Or perhaps there is another way to squash commits in the client?

回答1:

There is no way to do it through the gui. That said, there are ways to squash commits without the interactive rebase. For instance, one could do a reset --soft 3 commits ago, add everything to the index and commit. This would effectively squash the last 3 commits.
