Update remote repo

$ cd $HOME/Code/repo-directory
$ git remote rename origin bitbucket
$ git remote add origin https://github.com/mandiwise/awesome-new-repo.git
$ git push origin master

$ git remote rm bitbucket

+1 for GitHub import tool. It's easier.

Also, in my case, I needed to create an App password in my Bitbucket account settings, and use my Bitbucket username and the created token as credentials when importing. (Read & Write)

Finally, just reset the remote url locally git remote set-url origin [email protected]:username/repo-name.git.

FWIW, Atlassian now tells me that this was a false alarm. Once they figured out how to let me update the expiration date of my credit card, all was fine with my current Bitbucket product. I'm not going to even try to hazard a guess as to its name. The Atlassian site is among the worst I've ever tried to navigate.

If you're using bitbucket make sure the login is whatever it says in your https://bitbucket.org/account (not your email address) and generate an app password, that worked for me.

Give this guy a nobel prize 🙌

What @jpgarza93 said, give the man a nobel prize! I was pulling my hair out why it failed! Worked as a charm after this comment!
