I am new to git and have been having some trouble with committing from Visual Studio. Just recently, Visual Studio started to not update my changes. Then when I tried to commit it gave me multiple errors. The changes disappeared though. The errors from the output.

  1. Git: Failed to execute git

  2. git fetch fatal: No remote repository specified. Please, specify either a URL or a remote name from which new revisions should be fetched.

  3. fatal: no upstream configured for branch 'master'

This just started happening after many commits. I looked all over the forums but have had no success. Everything in the git config --list is set accordingly. It is a private repository though. Would that effect anything?

first of all,

set your remote repository using,

git remote add upstream repsitory_url

it will solve your 2 and 3 error. it seems you dont have any remote repository to push thats why. so copy your repo name and add it into your project using above command.

for eg:

git remove add upstream github.io/my_prj/proj.git

Can you change the remote upstream url? Its set to a old repository. I tried and it gave me fatal.
you can... you can add multiple remote . it will be differentiated by origin/upstream. so if you setted origin you can add upstream also...

I just re-opened my same directory and it somehow fixed everything. I guess when it re-opened Visual Studio it went one directory to far up and would not recognize it. ~/code/src/code2/src2 for some reason it opened src and not the 'code2' directory.
