2 AWS CodeCommit repositories with the same name and region

0

I am migrating a branch from one codecommit repo to another. Both Repos are on different accounts but have the same name and are in the same region. I connect to them using HTTPs so both have the same URLs (h/t/t/p/s://git-codecommit.region.amazonaws.com/v1/repos/repoName)as well. How do I push a branch from one repo to another?

Git can sort it out automagically once you clone the repo.

Just checkout on the branch you want to migrate and add the remote repo as a new remote for the clone. Then just push !

git clone #urlofyourgitrepo#/v1/repos/repoName

git checkout branchName

git remote add destination #urlofyourgitrepo#/v1/repos/repoName

git push destination branchName

    Hello Giovanni, Let me elaborate further. I'm working with two AWS CodeCommit repositories that have the same name (MyDemoRepo) and the same URL (https://gi/t-co/dec/ommit/.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/v1/repos/MyDemoRepo). I'm on a branch feature-xyz in the source repo and need to push it to the destination repo with a prefix, making it new-feature-xyz. My problem here:

    1. The URLs to push/clone are the same. When I clone the source repo and try to push to the destination repo, the branches are getting pushed back to the source repo instead
    2. I do not have AWS Access keys or GUI access for the 2 AWS accounts, only two HTTPS Git credentials for AWS CodeCommit to connect to the two repos. How can I do this?
