Cloning is something you usually do only once. Since you already cloned your repo, a way to update your files locally with changes introduced in the origin (server) is to use git pull.

I recommend reading at least about git basics here: https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2 This book is really well-written, available for free and in many different languages.

I think you are saying that you have cloned your remote git repo to your local system and updated local system repo and want to add this to remote again right.

so, you can push your updated local repo on remote git repo. you just have to git add . and commit and push.

Run the command 'git pull' from an already cloned repo to get updates

You can take a look at gitexplorer.com, it's a web app that helps with git commands

So you have cloned a repository and updated the original afterwards.

To update your cloned repository you can add it as a remote to your updated origin repository by using git remote add nameOfRemote "pathofclonedrepo". If this works you can update the remote via git push nameOfRemote master or git push nameOfRemote HEAD.

If you really want to clone your repo again (not recommended) without deleting the old clone, you only have to repeat clone with a new path.
