Hello @schymans , you don’t need to create the new empty project on RenkuLab before pushing. Any non-taken valid name should work fine when pushing.

You can follow the steps here, starting from the section `Common steps`: [How to move projects between different RenkuLab Deployments](https://renku.discourse.group/t/how-to-move-projects-between-different-renkulab-deployments/215) .
