7
9 stg squash [options] [--] <patches>
10
12 Squash two or more patches, creating one big patch that contains all
13 their changes. In more detail:
14
15 1. Pop all the given patches, plus any other patches on top of them.
16
17 2. Push the given patches in the order they were given on the command
18 line.
19
20 3. Squash the given patches into one big patch.
21
22 4. Allow the user to edit the commit message of the new patch
23 interactively.
24
25 5. Push the other patches that were popped in step (1).
26
27 Conflicts can occur whenever we push a patch; that is, in step (2) and
28 (5). If there are conflicts, the command will stop so that you can
29 resolve them.
30
32 -n NAME, --name NAME
33 Name of squashed patch.
34
35 -m MESSAGE, --message MESSAGE
36 Use MESSAGE instead of invoking the editor.
37
38 -f FILE, --file FILE
39 Use the contents of FILE instead of invoking the editor. (If FILE
40 is "-", write to stdout.)
41
42 --save-template FILE
43 Instead of running the command, just write the message template to
44 FILE, and exit. (If FILE is "-", write to stdout.)
45
46 When driving StGit from another program, it is often useful to
47 first call a command with --save-template, then let the user edit
48 the message, and then call the same command with --file.
49
50 --no-verify
51 This option bypasses the commit-msg hook.
