...and if you've forked Tracks into your own tracks repo on github and
need to reparent that to TracksApp/tracks, the answer should be to
make a similar change to the upstream URL, as per
http://help.github.com/fork-a-repo/

Both URLs are just entries in .git/config in the project directory, so
you could just edit that file with a text editor and change the URLs
that way.

Fundamentally, Git doesn't care much about where it pulls from—it just
looks up the URL in the config, goes there, and downloads all the
objects with hashes it doesn't already have. Since the hashes are
based on content, the historical trunk ones will be the same whichever
upstream Tracks repo you were using, so it should just be a matter of
changing where Git goes to get updates or upstream updates.

I found <http://newartisans.com/2008/04/git-from-the-bottom-up/> very
helpful when getting to grips with it.
