The command glab mr merge --squash --message="${commit_message_body}" is used in GitLab to merge a merge request with the option to squash the commits and specify a custom commit message.

Here is a breakdown of the command:

• glab: This is the GitLab command-line tool. It provides an easy way to interact with GitLab repositories from the command line.
• mr merge: This subcommand is used to merge a merge request.
• --squash: This flag specifies that the commits from the source branch should be squashed into a single commit before merging. Squashing eliminates the individual commit history and combines the changes into a single commit, making the history cleaner and more concise.
• --message="${commit_message_body}": This flag is used to specify a custom commit message. The ${commit_message_body} is a placeholder that can be replaced with the desired commit message. By providing this flag and value, you can override the default commit message that would be automatically generated by GitLab.

Overall, this command merges a GitLab merge request, squashes the commits into a single commit, and allows you to customize the commit message.
