git change branch remote code example

Example 1: change git remote

git remote set-url origin [email protected]:user/repository2.git

Example 2: Git change remote branch name

1. Verify the local branch has the correct name:
git branch -a

2. Next, delete the branch with the old name on the remote repository:
git push origin ––delete old-name

3. Finally, push the branch with the correct name, and reset the upstream branch:
git push origin –u new-name

Alternatively, you can overwrite the remote branch with a single command:
git push origin :old-name new-name
Resetting the upstream branch is still required:
git push origin –u new-name

Example 3: git bash upstream branch change

git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/branch

Example 4: git replace local branch with remote

git reset --hard origin/master

Example 5: git bash upstream branch change

git config --edit
