+# Sometimes you need to move your existing git repository
+# to a new remote repository (/new remote origin).
+# Here are a simple and quick steps that does exactly this.
+#
+# Let's assume we call "old repo" the repository you wish
+# to move, and "new repo" the one you wish to move to.
+#
+### Step 1. Make sure you have a local copy of all 'old repo'
+### branches and tags.
+# Fetch all of the remote branches:
+git fetch origin
+
+# View all 'old repo' local and remote branches:
+git branch -a
+
+# If some of the remotes/ branches doesn't have a local copy,
+# checkout to create a local copy of the missing ones:
+git checkout -b <branch> origin/<branch>
+
+# Now we have to have all remote branches locally.
+
+
+### Step 2. Add a "new repo" as a new remote origin:
+git remote add new-origin [email protected]:user/repo.git
+
+
+### Step 3. Push all local branches and tags to a "new repo".
+# Push all local branches (note we're pushing to new-origin):
+git push --all new-origin
+
+# Push all tags:
+git push --tags new-origin
+
+
+### Step 4. Remove "old repo" origin and its dependencies.
+# View existing remotes (you'll see 2 remotes for both fetch and push)
+git remote -v
+
+# Remove "old repo" remote:
+git remote rm origin
+
+# Rename "new repo" remote into just 'origin':
+git remote rename new-origin origin
+
+
+### Done! Now your local git repo is connected to "new repo" remote
+### which has all the branches, tags and commits history.
