DESCRIPTION
-----------
Manage the set of repositories ("remotes") whose branches you track.
+OPTIONS
+-------
+
+-v::
+--verbose::
+ Be a little more verbose and show remote url after name.
+
+
COMMANDS
--------
With `-m <master>` option, `$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD` is set
up to point at remote's `<master>` branch instead of whatever
branch the `HEAD` at the remote repository actually points at.
++
+In mirror mode, enabled with `\--mirror`, the refs will not be stored
+in the 'refs/remotes/' namespace, but in 'refs/heads/'. This option
+only makes sense in bare repositories. If a remote uses mirror
+mode, furthermore, `git push` will always behave as if `\--mirror`
+was passed.
+
+'rename'::
+
+Rename the remote named <old> to <new>. All remote tracking branches and
+configuration settings for the remote are updated.
++
+In case <old> and <new> are the same, and <old> is a file under
+`$GIT_DIR/remotes` or `$GIT_DIR/branches`, the remote is converted to
+the configuration file format.
+
+'rm'::
+
+Remove the remote named <name>. All remote tracking branches and
+configuration settings for the remote are removed.
'show'::
referenced by <name>, but are still locally available in
"remotes/<name>".
+
-With `-n` option, the remote heads are not confirmed first with `git
-ls-remote <name>`; cached information is used instead. Use with
-caution.
+With `--dry-run` option, report what branches will be pruned, but do no
+actually prune them.
'update'::
the configuration parameter remotes.default will get used; if
remotes.default is not defined, all remotes which do not have the
configuration parameter remote.<name>.skipDefaultUpdate set to true will
-be updated. (See gitlink:git-config[1]).
+be updated. (See linkgit:git-config[1]).
DISCUSSION
The remote configuration is achieved using the `remote.origin.url` and
`remote.origin.fetch` configuration variables. (See
-gitlink:git-config[1]).
+linkgit:git-config[1]).
