I ran firebase init in the wrong directory and it is connected to my project. To undo that, can I just delete ./firebase.json and my_newly_created_folder_name/ from the terminal? Thanks

    I had the same problem. Firebase CLI should add an option to remove/reset/ or re-initialize a project in a new folder. – mesqueeb Oct 18 '17 at 11:21

You should delete firebase.json and .firebaserc if it exists. Once those files are deleted you should be good to go.

As for Firebase CLI version 8.4.2, you should delete the folder "functions" as well as the following files: firebase.json, .firebaserc, .gitignore.

If this is your case do not forget in /.github/workflows you may have CI (Deploy to Firebase Hosting on merge) configuration files firebase-hosting-merge.yml and firebase-hosting-pull-request.yml.
