Answer 1

Copy past your project in new directory and follow this link -> Change project root directory name

Or you can use git and create a new branch of your project.

Answer 2

You can use Git to manage your local project, and Github to create a private project and upload your project there. This is one of the best ways to manage your code and create a new app version.

If you don't want to use them, you may need:

1. copy all files to a given directory;
2. change the directory name of your package;
3. replace all package name in your AS;
4. change your gradle file of your app to change application id.
