How do I remove a GIT remote that has a "blank" name?

Somehow during my SSH configuration (for GitHub), Tortoise Git has created a remote configuration with a "blank" name.

Neither Tortoise nor Git command line will allow me to remove it because Git requires a name to be passed for the remote configuration.

Has anyone run into this before and what is the solution?

Below is the screenshot showing the section I removed based on the answer. The file is: ./.git/config

You should be able to use a text editor to manually edit .git/config file in your repo and rename the remote there.

Maybe you can remove it from github:

on your repo:

https://github.com/<user>/<repo>/branches
