Thank you. It's works for me also. Good Job!

[Hack] easy way is to change url directly from the source code,
open .git/config file in your favorite editor or nano , vim.

$ nano .git/config

and change the url = git@github.com:lifeeric/uploadToS3.git your repo url:

[core]
        repositoryformatversion = 0
        filemode = true
        bare = false
        logallrefupdates = true
        ignorecase = true
        precomposeunicode = true
[remote "origin"]
        url = git@github.com:lifeeric/uploadToS3.git     # here paste your url
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
[branch "main"]
        remote = origin
        merge = refs/heads/main
[pull]
        rebase = false

Hope you like it. thank you!
