$ cd $HOME/Code/repo-directory
$ git remote rename origin bitbucket
$ git remote add origin https://github.com/mandiwise/awesome-new-repo.git
$ git push origin master

$ git remote rm bitbucket

If you're using bitbucket make sure the login is whatever it says in your https://bitbucket.org/account (not your email address) and generate an app password, that worked for me.

Give this guy a nobel prize 🙌

What @jpgarza93 said, give the man a nobel prize! I was pulling my hair out why it failed! Worked as a charm after this comment!

+1, tysm

+1, this did most of what I needed.

My local branch had trouble tracking after this, though that might be because I wanted to rename the trunk branch from master to main while I was doing this, so I also had to run

$ git branch -u origin/main

after setting up the new origin to get the branch to track.
