An experienced Git user usually does that with "git rebase -i", also
known as "rewriting history".  This is explained quite well in the Pro
Git book: http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Tools-Rewriting-History

However, in your case I recommend to stick with Tony's advice, which
requires less special knowledge about Git:
