How can I undo the cloning and checkout. I made some mistakes and need a fresh start.

Thanks,
Liza

Hi lizajanneth! I'm the friendly 🤖 of the GitHub Training Team.

I can see that you're already a collaborator. Any other issues are above my paygrade at the moment, so we'll have to wait for a pesky hu-man trainer. Not to worry though, they'll drop by within 24 hours to answer your questions!

@lizajanneth just remove that entire folder with git rm -rf <folder-name> and then do git clone <clone-url> from scratch.

@hectorsector
the command for removing the folder did not work, what do I do now?

[hectorsector]

@lizajanneth could you please show me what it says? you can also remove the entire folder from your file explorer.

@ccaillouet are you also trying to remove the folder?

@hectorsector
Sorry, @ccaillouet is sitting next to me. He has the issue. 🐤

[hectorsector]

ah, I see! I mistakenly wrote git before my previous command, just run rm -rf github-games.
