sI find a similar thread[1], but its problem is different from mine. My problem is when trying to replace old origin with the new one with the command
git remote set-url origin https://... git complains `error: could not lock config file .git/config: Permission denied`. All solutions found online suggest changing with `chown`. But that's not the case because all dirs under the directory with user and group configured are with my account e.g. My account is <my user>, and group is <my group>. Source dir called my-project is stored under /path/to/parent-project. `ls -alh` parent project dir shows drwxrwxr-x 16 <my user> <my group> 4.0K Sep 27 11:17 <parent-project> And ls -alh my-project shows dr-x------ 10 <my user> <my group> 4.0K Sep 27 10:57 <my src directory> -r-x------ 1 <my user> <my group> 23 Sep 27 10:57 <my file in git> All are configured with <my user> and <my group> recursively. How can I fix this? Anything I may miss that need to check?
