  To list all configured remote repositories, use git remote.

  It shows the short name (aliases) of each remote handle that you have configured.

  $ git remote
  premium
  premiumPro

  To show more detailed information, the --verbose or -v flag can be used. The output will include the URL and the type of the remote (push or pull):

  $ git remote -v
  premiumPro    https://github.com/user/CatClickerPro.git (fetch)
  premiumPro    https://github.com/user/CatClickerPro.git (push)
  premium    https://github.com/user/CatClicker.git (fetch)
  premium    https://github.com/user/CatClicker.git (push)

  Change remote url of your Git repository
  6

  You may want to do this if the remote repository is migrated. The command for changing the remote url is:

  git remote set-url
  

  It takes 2 arguments: an existing remote name (origin, upstream) and the url.

  Check your current remote url:

  git remote -v
  origin    https://bitbucket.com/develop/myrepo.git (fetch)
  origin    https://bitbucket.com/develop/myrepo.git (push)
  

  Change your remote url:

  git remote set-url origin https://localserver/develop/myrepo.git
  

  Check again your remote url:

  git remote -v
  origin    https://localserver/develop/myrepo.git (fetch)
  origin    https://localserver/develop/myrepo.git (push)

  To add a remote, use git remote add in the root of your local repository.

  For adding a remote Git repository <url> as an easy short name <name> use

  git remote add <name> <url>
  

  The command git fetch <name> can then be used to create and update remote-tracking branches <name>/<branch>.
