'Android Studio Project says project is already on GitHub despite the fact I deleted repository.

I deleted the project from GitHub and want to re-share (create new repository) it via Android Studio but it still thinks I have it up on GitHub. Is there a way to reset this?



Solution 1:[1]

Open the /.git/config file and delete the lines:

[remote "origin"]
    url = https://github.com/githubaccountname/MyProject.git
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

Then open Android Studio and you will now be able to run the 'Share project on GitHub' without getting an error that it is already shared on github.

I had a same problem, and I solved it in this way.

File->Setting->Version Control-> minus(remove) the Git path

Solution 3:[3]

On the Top Menu, Click Git->Manage Remotes and click the delete button.

Step 1: Remove all .git and .gitignore folders from your project directory Step 2: VCS: Import into version control Step 3: Create Git repository Step 4: (Same dialog) Last option: Share project on Github Step 5: Describe and Hit Share Step 6: In next pop up : Hit -> Add (Will take some time). Step 7 : Then Go to VCS in menu options at top on android studio -> Git -> Push

Then check your github account & See if its committed & pushed. (-; Happy Coding :-)-----\
