It can be (as the accepted answer suggests) just a moment to wait, but in the majority of cases it is linked to permissions on the remote. While mostly a non-issue on public git services such as GitHub, Gitlab or Bitbucket, self-hosted remotes might have a special user, or a group for access.

And on new bare repositories it doesn't suffice to change the folder, but instead needs to be recursive because of .git-Folder inside.
