If the file has no changes staged in the index

Hi there,<br />
<br />
I am new to GitHub, and I've gone through a few video tutorials and GitHub help articles, but I still don't think I understand how it works. <br />
<br />
Can a single file in my remote GitHub repository be deleted from a GitBash command prompt on my computer?<br />
<br />
I've tried this from GitBash:<br />

<pre><code id="code-10-28730460-1">$ git remote rm https://github.com/myGitHub/myRepository/myFile.zip
 error: Could not remove remove config section 'remote.https://github.com/myGitHub/myRepository/myFile.zip'</code></pre>
<br />
The error doesn't sound good, so I assume it's the wrong command??

Delete a single file from remote GitHub repository

Git is a version control system for software development. It is a distributed revision control system with an emphasis on speed, data integrity, and support for distributed, non-linear workflows. Git was initially designed and developed for Linux kernel development. As with most other distributed version control systems, every Git working directory is a full-fledged repository with complete history and full version-tracking capabilities, independent of network access or a central server.

Remote access may refer to the connection to a data-processing system from a remote location, for example through a virtual private network remote desktop software, terminal emulation, or the activation of features of a business telephone system from outside the business's premises.

Remote Access

File sharing is the practice of distributing or providing access to digital media, such as computer programs, multimedia (audio, images and video), documents or electronic books. Common methods of storage, transmission and dispersion include manual sharing utilizing removable media, centralized servers on computer networks, World Wide Web-based hyperlinked documents, distributed peer-to-peer networking (P2P) and cloud-based file syncing.
