You are initializing in an existing Firebase project directory
How do I change the Firebase project in my cli?
When I run firebase init, it says:
Before we get started, keep in mind:
* You are initializing in an existing Firebase project directory
? Are you ready to proceed? (Y/n)
It never asks on which project do I need to upload. How can I link my other project?
Answer
The Firebase CLI will look in the current directory and all parent directories for a file called .firebaserc that defines which project is being used in this directory structure. If you run firebase init and encounter the message "You are initializing in an existing Firebase project directory", that means one of these .firebaserc files was found, and it's going to re-initialize this project.
If you no longer want the original project, just delete the .firebaserc file. Or, find another directory to run firebase init that isn't within another project's space.
