Change the URI for a Git remote
David Y.
The Problem
How do I change the URI of a remote in my Git repository?
The Solution
You can do this using git remote set-url:
git remote set-url origin https://github.com/username/repositoryname.git
Substitute origin with the name of your remote, if it differs, and the example URL with the new URL you’d like to set.
You can verify the change by running git remote -v, which will display the URLs for all remotes.
