If you have a tree which has those four commits on top, it's rather easy 
with git:

$ git-reset --soft HEAD^^^
$ git-commit --amend

...In order the git-reset --soft to leave the index into the desired 
state, no pending stuff should be in index before beginning (index
is the thing controlled with cmds like git-add/git-update-index/etc.).

...The commit's message is taken from the bottommost of those four 
original commits.
