远程：在 mac 终端中找不到存储库错误

Question

I am new to git. I have a private repo and now I want to push the changes of my local to remote repo. However, I get an error:

remote: Repository not found.
fatal: repository 'https://github.com/co-csp/csm.git/' not found

What might cause these error and please help me how to solve it, I am using Mac terminal . My username is john2 in github profile git config user.name and git config user.username both gives john2 so username seems correct...

Answer 1

If you are working with a private repository, do the following:

1. git remote rm origin
2. git remote add origin https://user@github.com/co-csp/csm.git
3. git clone https://user@github.com/co-csp/csm.git

This should prompt you to type in the GitHub password and should look like this.

Cloning into 'csm'... Password for 'https://user@github.com':

Answer 2

You have two options here. One option is to use git clone , the other options is git init .

Option 1: Use git clone . In a new empty folder put the following command: git clone https://github.com/co-csp/csm.git . You are ready to go.

Option 2: In the project folder, type git init . This will initiate an empty new repository. It will create a .git folder inside. Go to this folder by typing cd .git . Open the config file with your favourite editor (mine is vim ). You will see the following there:

[core]
        repositoryformatversion = 0
        filemode = true
        bare = false
        logallrefupdates = true
        ignorecase = true

Underneath, append the following:

[remote "origin"]
        url = https://github.com/co-csp/csm.git
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

Answer 3

There are two possibilities why the Repository not found error occurs:

1. The remote repository does not exist . If you have already set up the remote URL, display it by typing $ git remote -v and check that you spelled everything correctly. If you haven't added the remote URL yet, try $ git remote add origin [URL] to do so. Also make sure you can find the repo on github; maybe the owner deleted or renamed it. To locally update the URL to your remote repository, type $ git remote set-url origin [new-URL] . After that, type $ git remote show origin to check whether git can find the remote repo now.

2. The remote repository is private and you don't have access . If the repository is private and you didn't authenticate correctly, git will give you the Repository not found error even if your remote repository URL is correct. Generally, you can authenticate by using either SSH keys or HTTPS. Using HTTPS, git should normally prompt you for your credentials when it needs them. If it doesn't, try removing your local reference to the remote repo by typing $ git remote rm origin and re-add it using $ git remote add origin [URL] . I personally prefer using SSH authentication with public and private keys, since it doesn't necessarily require any passwords. You might check out this link to set up SSH authentication for your GitHub, or simply google for it.
