github rename repository- How do I rename a repository on GitHub?

Asked by Edyth Ferrill Jun 21, 2021 2.5K views 1 answer

About this question

I wanted to rename one of my repositories on GitHub, but getting a red warning :

  • We will not set up any redirects from the old location

  • You will need to update your local repositories to point to the new location

  • Renaming may take a few minutes to complete

Does anyone have step-by-step instructions on how to accomplish #1 and #2 manually? Or what do I have to do locally?
