renaming repo
Opened this issue · 2 comments
Hi @daltare -- I was wondering if we can rename this repo to Pollution-Prejudice-Community? Mainly just want to change the website URL for @ggearheart fundraising purposes. Not sure what would have to be done on the local end to make sure everything transfers well.
Hey @cclatterbuck - I think renaming the repo shouldn't be much of a problem. If I understand things correctly, I think github will automatically redirect everything (e.g., push/pull actions) to the new repo name, except for the published website itself (i.e., I think anyone who happened to have the existing url will need to use the new url). But if you do want to rest things locally so you don't have to rely on github redirecting things, I think you can use this to change the target github repo: git remote set-url origin new_url (changing the new_url part with the actual url). Let me know if any of that isn't clear or if you need any help with any of that.
As a sidenote, if you wanted the simplest possible url (without using a custom domain), I think you could also rename the repo to "CalEPARacialEquity.github.io", in which case the url would just be CalEPARacialEquity.github.io. But "Pollution-Prejudice-Community" sounds good to me if you want to keep this distinct.
