Git: How to remove remote origin from Git repo

Instead of removing and re-adding, you can do this:

git remote set-url origin git://new.url.here

See this question: How to change the URI (URL) for a remote Git repository?

To remove remote use this:

git remote remove origin

If you insist on deleting it:

git remote remove origin

Or if you have Git version 1.7.10 or older

git remote rm origin

But kahowell's answer is better.


To remove a remote:

git remote remove origin

To add a remote:

git remote add origin yourRemoteUrl

and finally

git push -u origin master
