title: git pull generates "fatal: No remote repository specified." error
body: <p>I want to start contributing to a project hosted on Github. I have taken the following steps:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>git init</li>
  <li>git pull <a href="https://github.com/PrincetonUniversity/EVCM.git" rel="noreferrer">https://github.com/PrincetonUniversity/EVCM.git</a></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>The pull command succeeded and the files where copied to my local directory. But when I try git pull again, then I get the following error</p>
  
  <p>"fatal: No remote repository specified.  Please, specify either a URL or a
  remote name from which new revisions should be fetched."</p>
  
  <p>I did not get this error when I pulled from and pushed to other Github repositories in the past. What is the problem and how can I fix it? Could it be because I have pulled the same repository to a different local directory in the past? In either case, what should I do to fix the problem?</p>
