How do I change the URI (URL) for a remote Git repository?

2022-12-22 22:38 问答作者：

I have a repo (origin) on a USB key that I开发者_开发百科 cloned on my hard drive (local). I moved "origin" to a NAS and successfully tested cloning it from here.

I would like to know if I can change the URI of "origin" in the settings of "local" so it will now pull from the NAS, and not from the USB key.

For now, I can see two solutions:

push everything to the USB origin, and copy it to the NAS again (implies a lot of work due to new commits to NAS origin);
add a new remote to "local" and delete the old one (I fear I'll break my history).

You can

git remote set-url origin new.git.url/here

See git help remote. You also can edit .git/config and change the URLs there.

You're not in any danger of losing history unless you do something very silly (and if you're worried, just make a copy of your repo, since your repo is your history.)

git remote -v
# View existing remotes
# origin  https://github.com/user/repo.git (fetch)
# origin  https://github.com/user/repo.git (push)

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/user/repo2.git
# Change the 'origin' remote's URL

git remote -v
# Verify new remote URL
# origin  https://github.com/user/repo2.git (fetch)
# origin  https://github.com/user/repo2.git (push)

Changing a remote's URL

git remote set-url {name} {url}

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/myName/GitTest.git

Change Host for a Git Origin Server

from: http://pseudofish.com/blog/2010/06/28/change-host-for-a-git-origin-server/

Hopefully this isn’t something you need to do. The server that I’ve been using to collaborate on a few git projects with had the domain name expire. This meant finding a way of migrating the local repositories to get back in sync.

Update: Thanks to @mawolf for pointing out there is an easy way with recent git versions (post Feb, 2010):

git remote set-url origin ssh://newhost.com/usr/local/gitroot/myproject.git

See the man page for details.

If you’re on an older version, then try this:

As a caveat, this works only as it is the same server, just with different names.

Assuming that the new hostname is newhost.com, and the old one was oldhost.com, the change is quite simple.

Edit the .git/config file in your working directory. You should see something like:

[remote "origin"]
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
url = ssh://oldhost.com/usr/local/gitroot/myproject.git

Change oldhost.com to newhost.com, save the file and you’re done.

From my limited testing (git pull origin; git push origin; gitx) everything seems in order. And yes, I know it is bad form to mess with git internals.

This is very easy and simple; just follow these instructions.

For adding or changing the remote origin:
```
git remote set-url origin githubrepurl
```
To see which remote URL you have currently in this local repository:
```
git remote show origin
```

Switching remote URLs

Open Terminal.

Ist Step:- Change the current working directory to your local project.

2nd Step:- List your existing remotes in order to get the name of the remote you want to change.

git remote -v

origin  https://github.com/USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (fetch)

origin  https://github.com/USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (push)

Change your remote's URL from HTTPS to SSH with the git remote set-url command.

3rd Step:- git remote set-url origin git@github.com:USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git

4th Step:- Now Verify that the remote URL has changed.

git remote -v Verify new remote URL

origin  git@github.com:USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (fetch)
origin  git@github.com:USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (push)

git remote set-url origin git://new.location

(alternatively, open .git/config, look for [remote "origin"], and edit the url = line.

You can check it worked by examining the remotes:

git remote -v
# origin  git://new.location (fetch)
# origin  git://new.location (push)

Next time you push, you'll have to specify the new upstream branch, e.g.:

git push -u origin master

See also: GitHub: Changing a remote's URL

As seen here,

$ git remote rm origin
$ git remote add origin git@github.com:aplikacjainfo/proj1.git
$ git config master.remote origin
$ git config master.merge refs/heads/master

remove origin using command on gitbash git remote rm origin
And now add new Origin using gitbash git remote add origin (Copy HTTP URL from your project repository in bit bucket) done

First you need to type this command to view existing remotes

git remote -v

Then second you need to type this command to Change the 'origin' remote's URL

git remote set-url origin <paste your GitHub URL>

Write the below command from your repo terminal:

git remote set-url origin git@github.com:<username>/<repo>.git

Refer this link for more details about changing the url in the remote.

To check git remote connection:

git remote -v

Now, set the local repository to remote git:

git remote set-url origin https://NewRepoLink.git

Now to make it upstream or push use following code:

git push --set-upstream origin master -f

Navigate to the project root of the local repository and check for existing remotes:

git remote -v

If your repository is using SSH you will see something like:

> origin  git@github.com:USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (fetch)
> origin  git@github.com:USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (push)

And if your repository is using HTTPS you will see something like:

> origin  https://github.com/USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (fetch)
> origin  https://github.com/USERNAME/REPOSITORY.git (push)

Changing the URL is done with git remote set-url. Depending on the output of git remote -v, you can change the URL in the following manner:

In case of SSH, you can change the URL from REPOSITORY.git to NEW_REPOSITORY.git like:

$ git remote set-url origin git@github.com:USERNAME/NEW_REPOSITORY.git

And in case of HTTPS, you can change the URL from REPOSITORY.git to NEW_REPOSITORY.git like:

$ git remote set-url origin https://github.com/USERNAME/NEW_REPOSITORY.git

NOTE: If you've changed your GitHub username, you can follow the same process as above to update the change in the username associated with your repository. You would only have to update the USERNAME in the git remote set-url command.

if you cloned your local will automatically consist,

remote URL where it gets cloned.

you can check it using git remote -v

if you want to made change in it,

git remote set-url origin https://github.io/my_repo.git

here,

origin - your branch

if you want to overwrite existing branch you can still use it.. it will override your existing ... it will do,
