I've successfully implemented automatic file creation/update via Github V3 Rest API, however the only downside is that for each file I have a commit.
There is a possibility to do the same for multiple files, but unfortunately it involves some concepts I still haven't mastered and it will take me some time until I get there since I have more urgents stuff on my TODO list.
In the meanwhile, I can totally live with that or simply squash the last N commits, which I imagined should be relatively easy, since locally it's just a matter of
git reset --soft HEAD~N
git commit -m ".."
but I couldn't find anything on the docs or online
So my question is: how can I squash the last N commits, non interactively, using Github API?
Ps: I don't care if it's v3 or v4 as long as I get it done
I did not see a squash feature directly through API.
You would need to:
merge_method
parameter set to squashPretty convoluted, but it should work (entirely through script, without having to clone the repository).
