How to Determine the URL That a Local Git Repository Was Originally Cloned From
To determine the URL that a local Git repository was originally cloned from, you can use the git remote
command with the -v
option. Here's how:
git remote -v
This command will display the URLs associated with your local repository's remote repositories. It will show both the fetch and push URLs for each remote repository.
Example output:
origin <https://github.com/username/repository.git> (fetch)
origin <https://github.com/username/repository.git> (push)
In this example, origin
is the name of the remote repository, and https://github.com/username/repository.git
is the URL that the local repository was originally cloned from.
If you have multiple remotes, each remote's URL will be listed along with its associated fetch and push URLs.
