HIIi team,

I wanted to know what is the difference between remote add origin vs remote set-url origin in git

What is difference between using following commands ? :

git remote add origin git@github.com:niroj/Repo.git
git remote set-url origin git@github.com:niroj/Repo.git

Thanks in advance!!

Hello,

If you want to add a new remote, use the git remote add command on the terminal, in the directory your repository is stored at.

The git remote set-url command changes an existing remote repository URL.

So, remote add is to add a new one, remote set-url is to update an existing one

Hope this helps!!
