According to your screenshot, it seems that you made a typo when setting up the remote as origin. The place you're trying to push to is httpsL//github.com/Aarondv1/TH.git , but this is not valid URL. I'm guessing it should be https://github.com/Aarondv1/TH.git.

Try this:

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/Aarondv1/TH.git

This should alter the URL given in the origin remote setup. You can then try your push again. Good luck! :sparkles:

when the console reports the 'fatal error' it changes the URL string and replaced the colon with the 'L'

The command was typed correctly, same as what you wrote....

No matter what I did I got a fatal error on the treehouse console at the same place, despite following her steps exactly and triple checking my work. I think it's a limitation of the console within the workspace environment, as least it appears that way for me.

When I had done the Git course I had downloaded git bash onto my PC and I was able to replicate all the same steps in the actual console. I didn't have her python files but I created a basic readme file of my own and I was able to successfully push it to Git Hub.

So I know the process works, but not on the treehouse workspace console.
