How to push without using rhc to the source code repository given by openshift?

[songgaoxian]

I obtained my ssh public key and let openshift give me an access to source code via ssh:[email protected]/~/git/project.git/. I can successfully access the source code by git clone. But as I don't know the name of the origin for the source code, how can git push changes to the source code without using rhc? (I cannot setup rhc properly)

The remote should be set automatically during git clone. Did you check https://developers.openshift.com/en/managing-modifying-applications.html ?

Although the origin remote should have been set when cloning the git repository, you can easily change or set the remote manually with the following commands:

git remote remove origin
git remote add origin ssh:[email protected]/~/git/project.git/

Or, you can add the following configuration to your .git/config file:

[remote "origin"]
  url = ssh:[email protected]/~/git/project.git/
  fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

@songgaoxian are you still experiencing issues with this?

My ISP has blocked git push over SSH! But, pushing over HTTPS works! Is there any way I can push to my OpenShift repository using HTTPS ?

P.S.: It was working till 15th November 2016 but from yesterday it was not working!

Any working solution is appreciated!

@SpEcHiDe I am not aware of any method for you to push over anything other than SSH. There is no https server serving your git repository, so it would not be possible to push over https.

You'll have to use a proxy (which I doubt would be okay by your security folks if they disabled outgoing ssh connections). Alternatively, you can look into using the new developer preview, although accounts only last a set amount of time: https://www.openshift.com/devpreview/

@SpEcHiDe it might be possible for you to use binary deployments instead of git. You'll have to take a snapshot of your application though, which I believe requires the ability to copy files over ssh, so it may not be a viable option:
