I made a Github repository and named it

I created a Github repository named, let's say, my-first-repository under a username, let's call it MyFirstUsername so the entire URL path might look something like:

First Github Path

https://github.com/MyFirstUsername/my-first-repository

Then I changed accounts

At some later time, I created a second account for whatever reason. Let's call it MySecondUsername Now, I can't access the first account but I want to upload an update to my first repository located at:

https://github.com/MySecondUsername/my-first-repository

Question

Is there a way to get the first account to "release" the namespace? Or any other way to use the first repository name even if it's going to reside in a separate (the second) account's repository?

You could change url 

git remote set-url origin https://github.com/MySecondUsername/my-first-repository
