Just a small comment here - (friendly comment from a visitor :). If
you are following squash & rebase workflow - in Apache Airflow we
exclusively merge with GitHub UI's merge.

You can configure .asf.yml to only allow "squash & rebase" and then
squashing and rebasing happens automatically when you merge from the
UI. It also gives a chance to revise and update the commit message of
such squash & rebase while doing it.

I know it's not a command line one, but It has really nice properties :).
