Adding an existing project through Github using the command line (terminal)

Question

I am having issues with adding an existing project through Github using terminal. I used the following commands:

In Terminal, add the URL for the remote repository where your local repository will be pushed.

# Sets the new remote
git remote add origin remote repository URL

# Verifies the new remote URL
git remote -v

Push the changes in your local repository to GitHub.

# Pushes the changes in your local repository up to the remote repository 
# you specified as the origin
git push origin master

It came with the following results:

remote: Permission to Bloc/bloc-jams-student-skeleton.git denied to ynoorstani.
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/Bloc/bloc-jams-student-skeleton.git/': The requested URL returned error: 403

Any helpful tips or insight would be awesome!

Answer 1

You could write to this repo (push) only if you were part of the Bloc organization members ( here is the list ).

Since you are not in that list, you would need to fork that repo in order to push to it.
