+# Update The URL Of A Remote
+
+I just changed the name of a Github repository. One of the implications of
+this is that the remote URL that my local git repository has on record is
+now out of date. I need to update it.
+
+If I use `git-remote` with the `-v` flag. I can see what remotes I currently
+have.
+
+```bash
+$ git remote -v
+origin  git@github.com:jbranchaud/pokemon.git (fetch)
+origin  git@github.com:jbranchaud/pokemon.git (push)
+```
+
+Now, to update the URL for that remote, I can use `git remote set-url`
+specifying the name of the remote and the updated URL.
+
+```bash
+$ git remote set-url origin git@github.com:jbranchaud/pokemon_deluxe.git
+```
+
+If I check again, I can see it has been updated accordingly.
+
+```bash
+$ git remote -v
+origin  git@github.com:jbranchaud/pokemon_deluxe.git (fetch)
+origin  git@github.com:jbranchaud/pokemon_deluxe.git (push)
+```
