+### I set the wrong remote repository
+
+There are a few possible problems here:
+
+If you cloned the wrong repository, simply delete the directory created after running `git clone` and clone the correct repository.
+
+If you set the wrong repository as the origin of an existing local repository, change the url of your origin by running:
+
+```sh
+$ git remote set-url origin [url of the actual repo]
+```
