I created a local GIT repository on Windows. Let's call it AAA. I staged, committed, and pushed the contents to GitHub. [email protected]:username/AAA.git

I realized I made a mistake with the name.

On GitHub, I renamed it to [email protected]:username/BBB.git

Now, on my Windows machine, I need to change [email protected]:username/AAA.git to [email protected]:username/BBB.git because the settings are still trying to "push" to [email protected]:username/AAA.git but I need to push to [email protected]:username/BBB.git now.

How could I do that?
