Visual Studio 2013 uses wrong Clone url

I renamed my Git repository on team foundation server online and now I can't clone it anymore. I can connect to the team foundation project but cloning the repository fails, because there the old name is used for the repository URL. How can I force Visual Studio to use the correct repository URL?

Additional Information: I already tried to initialize Visual Studio with no success.

Did you follow the instructions to close Visual Studio and open it again.

If so, you can try deleting the TFS cache from c:\Users[you]\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Team Foundation\5.0\Cache

I had a similar problem like this a while ago. The way I did it was just use git in a shell to update the remote. I'm sure you can also do this in VS itself, but I found it easier to do it the 'old fashioned way'.

Just browse to your folder in git shell and use git remote set-url origin https://repo.url

After this, Visual Studio should use the new remote.
