Git Bash: remote error: You can't push to git://github.com/

Question

Please, help me, how can I fix this error ?

$git push origin dev fatal: remote error:  You can't push to git://github.com//name_of_repo.git  Use https:://github.com//name_of_repo.git 

Answer 1

Use an HTTPS or SSH URL. Instead of git://github.com/user/repo.git use one of these:

• https://github.com/user/repo.git
• [email protected]:user/repo.git

You can change it in your clone like this:

git remote set-url origin <THE-URL-HERE> 

Answer 2

I had the same error, and this worked for me, which I found here: https://coderwall.com/p/7begkw/fatal-remote-error-you-can-t-push-to-git

git remote rm origin  git remote add origin [email protected]:user/repo.git git push origin master
