Git removing upstream from local repository

Question

I am working with a ruby on rails application and I am trying to sync a fork  It is worth mentioning that I am also on a Mac  I committed the following action     git remote -v   to get a view of my local repository  I messed up when trying to go upstream     git remote add upstream https   github com foo repo git   When I should have capitalized Foo     git remote add upstream https   github com Foo repos git   The question is how do I remove the upstream because every time I try and change this it comes back with creating a fatal error

In git version 2 14 3   You can remove upstream using   git branch --unset-upstream   The above command will also remove the tracking stream branch  hence if you want to rebase from repository you have use   git rebase origin master    instead of git pull --rebase

git remote manpage is pretty straightforward      https   www kernel org pub software scm git docs git-remote html   Use  Older  backwards-compatible  syntax    git remote rm upstream Newer syntax for newer git versions     see below    git remote remove upstream  Then do        git remote add upstream https   github com Foo repos git   or just update the URL directly     git remote set-url upstream https   github com Foo repos git   or if you are comfortable with it  just update the  git config directly - you can probably figure out what you need to change  left as exercise for the reader         remote  upstream       fetch    refs heads   refs remotes upstream       url   https   github com foo repos git              Regarding  git remote rm  vs  git remote remove  - this changed around git 1 7 10 3   1 7 12 2 - see  https   code google com p git-core source detail spec svne17dba8fe15028425acd6a4ebebf1b8e9377d3c6 amp r e17dba8fe15028425acd6a4ebebf1b8e9377d3c6  Log message  remote  prefer subcommand name  remove  to  rm   All remote subcommands are spelled out words except  rm    rm   being a popular UNIX command name  may mislead users that there are also  ls  or  mv   Use  remove  to fit with the rest of subcommands    rm  is still supported and used in the test suite  It s just not widely advertised

Using git version 1 7 9 5 there is no  remove  command for remote  Use  rm  instead     git remote rm upstream   git remote add upstream https   github com Foo repos git   or  as noted in the previous answer  set-url works   I don t know when the command changed  but Ubuntu 12 04 shipped with 1 7 9 5
