I pulled a project with from GitHub a long ago. Right now I do not know the full url of the Git repository. I want to look at the full git repository but I guess it will be confusing since there are many similarly named repositories under my Github account.
So how do I determine which Github Repository I cloned from using command line??
Here is the simple answer!
The minimal information – the URL
The command:
git config --get remote.origin.url
or
git remote get-url origin
It output the response, something like:
https://github.com/inimist/repo_laravel.git
The detailed info – Everything you need to know!
There is another command which outputs a detailed description of the repository. It is:
git remote show origin
It shows something like:
* remote origin
Fetch URL: https://github.com/inimist/repo_laravel.git
Push URL: https://github.com/inimist/repo_laravel.git
HEAD branch: master
Remote branches:
dev tracked
charan new (next fetch will store in remotes/origin)
dev2 tracked
master tracked
refs/remotes/origin/dev stale (use 'git remote prune' to remove)
refs/remotes/origin/dev2 stale (use 'git remote prune' to remove)
Local ref configured for 'git push':
charan pushes to charan (up to date)
Ref. url at Github
