Ruby on Rails

Check the number of commits in your PR and do the following:

$ git reset --soft HEAD~<number_of_commits_in_pr>

$ git commit -m "<some message>"

$ git push --force origin <your_branch>

Your commits should be updated on the pull request also.

Hope this helps.

BACK STORY: I'm working on the rubygems.org site.  So far, all I've done is fill in the missing details on setting up the project.  (The only two files I've changed are config/database.yml.example and CONTRIBUTING.md.)  I forked the project, made changes, pushed them, and submitted a pull request.  You can see the pull request at https://github.com/rubygems/rubygems.org/pull/690 .

I was told that I need to combine my multiple commits into one.  So I used the "git rebase" command, but there's one more step that I'm missing.  I'm told that I merged in the master branch but didn't rebase/squash the commits.

When I enter "git log", the output starts with:

commit 9f341298389e64c2fec62a6400c0529d014a42b2  Merge: 738e1b7 4d366e4  Author: Jason Hsu   Date:   Mon May 26 14:30:47 2014 -0500        Merge branch 'master' of https://github.com/jhsu802701/rubygems.org            Provided username and password in config/database.yml.example; added missing   setup details in CONTRIBUTING.md    commit 738e1b7cdb72e4e6fe142e181e9a148d1d57f10a  Author: Jason Hsu   Date:   Fri May 23 12:31:30 2014 -0500        Updated setup to include how to install old version of gems, how to install   redis-server in Linux, and how to install PostgreSQL in Linux            Added complete initrd and pg_ctl commands for getting started            Changed formatting of commands to prepare Postgres            Removed indents for Postgresql setup

What else do I need to do to combine all of the commits I made into just one?
