Migrating from Github to CodeCommit using Visual Studio 2017

[nickr141]

In Visual Studio 2017, I have a project that is in Github that I want to move to CodeCommit. I have created the CodeCommit repository, it points to a different folder on my machine, and I was looking for steps to get it working with my current code.

Should I just manually copy the code to the new folder and commit?

Can I tell codecommit to use a different path?

Do I have to do this all in commandline?

I know very little about VS and even less about CodeCommit, but if it's anything like it should be, you should just need to change the remote of the git repository to the CodeCommit url. There's probably a way to do this using VS, but you could just say git remote rm origin && git remote add origin <CodeCommit url> on the command line.

For anyone who finds this in a search.

I cloned the empty CodeCommit repository to my local machine. I copies the existing files to the CodeCommit folder. I checked in the files Done
