It was the perfect sandbox for me to practice navigating the command line without breaking a massive codebase.</p> <p>So using a few commmands in my terminal which helped me disconnect my project from the old server to a new server where my work can be at .</p> <p>The exact commmand sequence i used :</p> <h1> Remove the old private Gitea connection </h1> <p>git remote remove origin</p> <h1> Add the new public GitHub connection </h1> <p>git remote add origin <a href="https://github.com" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://github.com</a></p> <h1> Push the code up to the main branch </h1> <p>git branch -M main<br> git push -u origin main</p> <p>now you can easily check my live repository here : <a href="https://github.com/kahenda/git" rel="noopener noreferrer">kahenda/git</a></p> beginners firstpost
