To change the remote fetch URL in Git, you can use the git remote set-url
command followed by the name of the remote you want to update and the new URL you want to set. For example, if you want to change the fetch URL for a remote named origin to a new URL like https://your_new_url.git, you would run the following command:
git remote set-url origin https://your_new_url.git
This will update the fetch URL for the remote named origin and you can now fetch from and push to the new URL.
What is the difference between remote fetch URL and remote push URL in Git?
In Git, a remote fetch URL is the URL from which the remote repository will fetch updates. This is typically the URL of the central repository where changes are pushed by developers. On the other hand, a remote push URL is the URL that the remote repository uses to push changes from local repository to the remote repository.
In summary, the fetch URL is used for downloading changes from the remote repository to the local repository, while the push URL is used for uploading changes from the local repository to the remote repository.
How to revert back to the previous remote fetch URL in Git?
To revert back to the previous remote fetch URL in Git, you can use the following command:
git remote set-url origin <previous_url>
Replace <previous_url>

You can also check the current fetch URL of the remote repository by using the following command:
git remote -v
This will show you the fetch and push URLs for the remote repository. Make sure to verify that the fetch URL has been successfully set to the previous URL after running the git remote set-url
command.
