Not that I haven't done this a lot last few years. A proven approach
is to do it in two "git rebase -i mainline/master" sweeps:

1. For each commit, remove reclaim.c entry from the Makefile and import
reclaim.c contents to main.c.
2. For each commit, delete reclaim.c.

I've tried quite a few different angles and this what I've converged
into. Very hard to hit messy into messy merge conflicts.
