## Steps to take on new Git Repo
|
|
|
|
1. Create a new repository
|
|
2. Copy the link for step 3 below
|
|
|
|
## Steps to take from a git-capable command line
|
|
|
|
1. git clone --mirror <URL to my OLD repo location>
|
|
2. cd <New directory where your OLD repo was cloned>
|
|
3. git remote set-url origin <URL to my NEW repo location>
|
|
4. git push --mirror origin
|
|
|
|
## After
|
|
|
|
At this point, you have an old repo, a new repo, and a mirror on your filesystem. You can delete the <thing>.git folder and do a ```git clone``` of the new repo.
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
Old repo: https://git.bitnetix.com/Bitnetix/documentation
|
|
New repo: http://git.bitnetix.com/eloyd/Documentation
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
git clone --mirror https://git.bitnetix.com/Bitnetix/documentation
|
|
cd documentation.git
|
|
git remote set-url origin http://git.bitnetix.com/eloyd/Documentation.git
|
|
git push --mirror origin
|
|
rm -Rf documentation.git
|
|
git clone http://git.bitnetix.com/eloyd/Documentation
|
|
cd Documentation
|
|
```
