[QZ0] Problems with pushing files into my Github repository about dsa-java HOT 13 CLOSED

Sorry for replying so late. I have deleted my local project as well as my github account and started over. Everything is fine now. @lujiaying Could you help me close this issue? I have no access now.

@kxiao02 please make sure you "pushed" after making "commits" which are two separate steps.

@jdchoi77 I did push the whole project and it told me that everything is up-to-date. I think the problem might be that I imported the project with the remote name 'github' instead of 'origin'?

@kxiao02 the name of the branch should be origin instead of github

from dsa-java.

@jdchoi77 How can I fix that?

from dsa-java.

@kxiao02 a proper but possibly difficult way is to learn how to change a remote branch name (so much resource available for this online). An easy way is to delete your local project and repo in Github and start from scratch but this time, make sure the origin branch is setup properly.

@jdchoi77 Ok! Thank you so much :)

@kxiao02 Could you share your solution to benefit the class?

Besides, if this issue has been solved, please close it.

@lujiaying Sorry I still haven't solve the problem. There was some problem with my romote brach in the first place or I wouldn't be using 'github' instead. So simply deleting everything won't work. Maybe I'll come up with a solution to this problem tomorrow.

Got it. No worry to rush at all.

Same as Dr. Choi's suggestion, the easiest way is to delete both local codebase in your laptop and remote repository in Github to get a clean starting point. And re-do the whole process from scratch.

@lujiaying But the problem is that my remote named 'origin' leads to a 404 page that exist even if a repository is absent, and I have no clue how to get rid of it. Will deleting the local project also delete the remote, too?

from dsa-java.

@lujiaying Maybe I'll just re-do the whole process lol.

I would recommend maybe to study some core concepts "Github Remote repository vs local repository", "Github Branch".
"Origin" is the branch name, and if you previously push your local branch into remote github branch, you would still able to push your local branch into remote origin branch. (One Github Repo can have a bunch of branches)

After origin branch is pushed successfully, you can safely delete github branch.
