How to delete git repository(laravel project) on visual studio code

Question

I have small laravel project that committed to git. Then I successfully deleted a remote repository by manually(Setting -> Delete this repository), it work fine. But once I try to make new repository on vs code, then I got

$ git init
Reinitialized existing Git repository in C:/xampp/htdocs/uploadcanvas/.git/

Actually, this repository already deleted. But I may need to clear some cache/file to create new repository. But I'm do not know how to manage that.

Any advise or guidance would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.

Are you sure that you do delete .git folder from uploadcanvas folder? — ramin ashrafimanesh, Apr 28 '19 at 07:02

Additional hint: it is a hidden folder, so you need to show hidden files in order to see the .git folder. – Alfredo Rodriguez Aug 28 '22 at 03:25

I think you should delete your .git folder. But unfortunately, .git folder is hidden by default. You can remove it in your settings > Files:Exclude. save your work, save your work. You should see the .git folder now so you can delete it
