Create a remote reset via the command line

Question

Is there such a possibility on a server like Github for example? If so, how could I do that?

Answer 1

You can do this using the Github API

The first step would be to create an access token. To do this, you can follow the instructions on this page:

https://help.github.com/en/articles/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line

With access token, you can create a new repository using Curl. An example:

curl -H "Authorization: token ACCESS_TOKEN" --data '{"name":"NEW_REPO_NAME"}' https://api.github.com/user/repos

Here’s a Stackoverflow link with other examples:
