Add existing Android Studio project to existing GitHub repository

I've created a project new project in Android Studio and I want to add it to an existing GitHub repository which is currently empty.



I have tried the answer from this question: Replace GitHub repository with a new Android Studio project while preserving old commits
but once I get to the final git push I get an error saying fatal: No configured push destination.



I have also tried https://github.community/t5/How-to-use-Git-and-GitHub/How-to-link-an-existing-Android-Studio-Project-to-an-existing/td-p/1946 but this uploads the project to the wrong GitHub account. I have two GitHub accounts which I think was the problem for this solution and I have since logged out of the account I don't need.



Are there any other ways to connect to an existing GitHub repository?

          (remote url is your repository url, for example: https://github.com/user/repo.git)



          then you can push using the following command:



          git push -remote name- -your branch name-

            The first thing you have to do is to create your local repository (on your machine)



            git init


            As you are trying to do a git push, I assume you already have done that.
            So the next thing you have to do is to define a remote repository (github) for your local repository to push on :



            git remote add origin https://github.com/<user>/<repo>.git


            You then can do your push but with a few more paramters.



            git push -u origin master


            That will tell git to push your commits to the master branch on your origin remote repository
