I'm have two git accounts. When I am trying to register a second remote 

git remote add origin [email protected]:RiyaKapuria/testing.git 
git push -u origin master

During pushing to my repo I'm getting this error:

fatal: remote origin already exists

replace origin by another name. because origin already exists. Like 

git remote add upstream [email protected]:RiyaKapuria/testing.git

You already have a remote named origin (the one you cloned from). Just give the new remote a different name and you should be OK:

$ git remote add another_origin [email protected]:RiyaKapuria/testing.git

and then push to the another_origin by executing

git push -u another_origin master

  • Now i'm getting this error $: git remote add another_origin [email protected]:RiyaKapuria/testing.git $: command not found – Riya Kapuria Oct 23 '17 at 06:34
  • @RiyaKapuria I use`$` in the common way to indicate a shell prompt. It's not part of the command – Mureinik Oct 23 '17 at 06:35
  • $ git push -u another_origin masterERROR: Permission to RiyaKapuria/testing.git denied to railsfactory-riya. fatal: Could not read from remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists. – Riya Kapuria Oct 23 '17 at 06:40
