Check Your Current Branch:
Ensure you are on the main branch or the branch you want to clean up.

git branch
If you are not on the main branch, switch to it:

git checkout main

Fetch Latest Changes:
Fetch the latest changes from the remote repository to make sure you have the most up-to-date information:

git fetch origin
Rebase Your Branch:
Use interactive rebase to squash your local commits into the main branch:

git rebase -i origin/main
In the interactive rebase window, you can squash or delete the commits you don't/' want to push. Follow the instructions provided during the interactive rebase.

Force Push:
After rebasing, you may need to force push the changes to the remote repository:

git push origin main --force
Be cautious with force pushing, especially if others are working on the same branch. It rewrites history, and if collaborators have pulled the branch, they will need to fetch and pull again.
