Migrating to a new git service/repository
Migrating to a new git service/repository
In one of the recent projects I am working on, we are migrating from a private Git server to GitHub. The easiest way to achieve this is to checkout all the code locally, including all the remote branches, then push to the new remote.
To do that start with a git fetch then just execute the following 👇🏻 code on your terminal in the project folder.
for remote in `git branch -r | grep -v master`;
do git checkout --track $remote; done
Check the remotes with
git remote -v
Replace the remote url
git remote set-url origin https://path-to-your-repo@github.com
Then
git push --all
Done. 💪🏻
