SYNOPSIS
       git remote [-v | --verbose]
       git remote add [-t <branch>] [-m <master>] [-f] [--mirror] <name> <url>
...
COMMANDS
       With no arguments, shows a list of existing remotes. Several subcommands are available
       to perform operations on the remotes.

       add
           Adds a remote named <name> for the repository at <url>. The command git fetch
           <name> can then be used to create and update remote-tracking branches
           <name>/<branch>.

           With -f option, git fetch <name> is run immediately after the remote information is
           set up.

           With -t <branch> option, instead of the default glob refspec for the remote to
           track all branches under $GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/, a refspec to track only <branch>
           is created. You can give more than one -t <branch> to track multiple branches
           without grabbing all branches.

           With -m <master> option, $GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD is set up to point at
           remote?s <master> branch instead of whatever branch the HEAD at the remote
           repository actually points at.

           In mirror mode, enabled with --mirror, the refs will not be stored in the
           refs/remotes/ namespace, but in refs/heads/. This option only makes sense in bare
           repositories. If a remote uses mirror mode, furthermore, git push will always
           behave as if --mirror was passed.
