How to squash commits in git after they have been pushed?

by

Squash commits locally with 

git rebase -i origin/master~4 master

and then force push with 

git push origin +master

Difference between --force and +

From the documentation of git push:

Note that --force applies to all the refs that are pushed, hence using
it with push.default set to matching or with multiple push
destinations configured with remote.*.push may overwrite refs other
than the current branch (including local refs that are strictly behind
their remote counterpart). To force a push to only one branch, use a +
in front of the refspec to push (e.g git push origin +master to force
a push to the master branch).
