| 17 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 18 | ----------- | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | Manage the set of repositories ("remotes") whose branches you track. | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | With no arguments, shows a list of existing remotes. | |
| 23 | ||
| 24 | In the second form, adds a remote named <name> for the repository at | |
| 25 | <url>. The command `git fetch <name>` can then be used to create and | |
| 26 | update remote-tracking branches <name>/<branch>. | |
| 27 | ||
| 28 | In the third form, gives some information about the remote <name>. | |
| 29 | ||
| 859607df SP |
30 | In the fourth form, deletes all stale tracking branches under <name>. |
| 31 | These stale branches have already been removed from the remote repository | |
| 32 | referenced by <name>, but are still locally available in "remotes/<name>". | |
| 33 | ||

34 | The remote configuration is achieved using the `remote.origin.url` and |
| 35 | `remote.origin.fetch` configuration variables. (See | |
| e0d10e1c | 36 | gitlink:git-config[1]). |
