Sometimes, a developer might intentionally (or) unintentionally end up with a shallow GIT Repo. And this can be a pain for those who unintentionally end up with shallow Repo.
You need to unshallow your local Repo. Following these simple steps can help you out of this situation.
Step 1: You must update/fix your origin remote repo.
git remote add origin <path-to-old-remote>
Step 2: You would need to perform a git fetch with an unlike option (as suggested below)
git fetch — unshallow origin
Just these two steps would restore your repo to the normal state. After this, you can perform all options, like push into your new remote repository.
