       Thanks so much for your help.


       Now your "git push -u origin master" was "![rejected]", after 
creating a new SSH and after your "git clone" and other "git remote 
rename ..." commands seemed to work:


$ git clone git using github.com:joshuaulrich/tmp-ecfun.git Ecdat
# Cloning into 'Ecdat'...<snip> done.

$ cd Ecdat/
$ git remote rename origin tmp
$ git remote add origin https://github.com/sbgraves237/Ecdat
$ git push -u origin master
#[Username & password OK]
To https://github.com/sbgraves237/Ecdat
  ! [rejected]        master -> master (fetch first)
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://github.com/sbgraves237/Ecdat'
hint: Updates were rejected because the remote contains work that you do
hint: not have locally. This is usually caused by another repository pushing
hint: to the same ref. You may want to first integrate the remote changes
hint: (e.g., 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
hint: See the 'Note about fast-forwards' in 'git push --help' for details.

       Suggestions?
       Thanks again,
