-Alternative to Rebasing
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-This is an alternative way to do it if you don't want to rebase.
-
-#. Check out my branch
-
-    .. code-block:: bash
-
-       $ git checkout my-branch
-
-
-#. Rename it to ``my-branch-old`` to save it, because we're going to create new clean branch to push:
-
-    .. code-block:: bash
-
-       $ git branch -m my-branch-old
-
-#. Create a new clean branch with the same name you were using before the last step:
-
-    .. code-block:: bash
-
-       $ git checkout master
-       $ git checkout -b my-branch
-
-#. Merge your saved old branch into the new one, telling git to "squash" all your commits into one (note this will
-   not commit the result; the changed files will be in your staging area, ready to be committed):
-
-    .. code-block:: bash
-
-       $ git merge --squash my-branch-old
-
-#. Commit the result
-
-    .. code-block:: bash
-
-       $ git commit
-
-#. Force-push your new clean branch to the remote— this will overwrite all your previous changes in that branch:
-
-    .. code-block:: bash
-
-       $ git push -f --set-upstream origin my-branch
-
-#. Create a GitHub Pull Request
-
-   A Pull Request is how you ask your upstream to review and merge your changes.
-
-   Here's `GitHub's instructions for creating a Pull Request <https://help.github.com/en/github/collaborating-with-issues-and-pull-requests/creating-a-pull-request>`_.
-
-#. Get Pull Request feedback and implement changes
-
-   Get suggestions for improvements from reviewers, make changes, and push them to the branch. Once the reviewers are
-   happy, they may suggest squashing and merging again to make a single commit. In this case you would repeat steps
-   1 through 6.
