Git error remote origin already exists: trying to make initial commit -
i'm trying push first commit new github repository , running issues remote origin. when try commit , push readme.txt file, fine until instructions indicate need run in command line:
git remote add origin https://github.com/afreymiller/personal_website.git
i
"fatal: remote origin exists."
fair enough,
git push -u origin master
as instructions indicate, , receive error
fatal: 'git@github.com/afreymiller/personal_website.git' not appear git repository fatal: not read remote repository. please make sure have correct access rights , repository exists.
what should next?
it looks you're trying change repo url ssh https. have remote origin url, instead of adding new one, change existing 1 using following command:
git remote set-url origin https://github.com/afreymiller/personal_website.git
after execute command, git install interacting github using https, want. using https instead of ssh, prompt password every time push github, less complicated setting public/private key pair ssh requires.
