nshastri@N-SHASTRI ~/datasciencecoursera (master) $ git push origin master ssh: Could not resolve hostname https: no address associated with name
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.
Simply type:
git remote -v and double-check the url associated with origin for your upstream repo.
Once you have the right url, update your remote origin with another git remote command:
git remote set-url origin /the/right/url In your case, the url is wrong:
https:/github.com/nkshastri/datasciencecoursera.git # instead of: https://github.com/nkshastri/datasciencecoursera.git ^^^^ Simply type:
git remote set-url origin https://nkshastri@github.com/nkshastri/datasciencecoursera Then try again:
git push -u origin master (with master, not maaster)
Sometimes this can be caused by a network issue. Try restarting your wifi or, if the repository is behind a VPN, make sure you are on the VPN.
You are probably trying to connect a FALSE NAME DIR your repository name should be the SAME as your folder name in local environment.
git repo: gitRepo folder name: gitRepo now you can push
it is also a good practice to first CLONE your new repository to a different folder and then you can COPY your code to this new folder and then change its name to the right git repository name.
