Squashing and rebasing is part of the basic git, in my opinion.
Maybe they should be, but with the basic git interface, or any front-end
I've seen, they're terribly convoluted. Particularly squashing. Well,
either that, or the docs are just really, REALLY bad.
There's no reason either one of those operations couldn't/shouldn't be a
(*simple*) one-line command, and yet, they just...aren't. But then,
that's git :/ (And no, rebasing a PR is NOT a one-line git command, and
no, add-on scripts don't count towards usability.)
Actually, about a week ago, I finally got around to staring a lib/cli
front-end for git (github support planned, too) to make everything sane.
Too early for anything public though, a lot still incomplete, a lot that
may still be in flux.
