I'm pretty sure you want to do something like this:
git branch T2 T1
git rebase -i master T2
# Editor opens
# Edit commit list to squash 3 commits into 1.
git push origin T2:master
git fetch origin

At the end, you'll have a history that looks like:
*--> origin/master (T2)
 \
  -> C1 --> C2 --> C3 (T1)

I'm not sure why you'd want to do this though.  If the commits don't stand 
alone well, they should be squashed on T1 before pushing.  If the commits 
do stand alone well, the history should preserve them on master as well.
