I may be missing something, but I\'m sure that I\'ve checked everything, I forked a repo and cloned it on my system, made some changes after commiting did git push or

Answer 1

The url with

git://github.com/my_username/my_repo.git

git:// Only gives read only access as mentioned in the side too..

Whereas,

git@github.com:my_username/my_repo.git

gives read and write access as mentioned in site

Though, https://github.com/my_username/my_repo.git also has read and write access but it was not working in your case because you trying to create a new remote with the same name instead of resetting it. The correct syntax as mentioned was

git remote set-url origin git@github.com:my_username/my_repo.git

And

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/my_username/my_repo.git

would also work.
