  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 branche 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.
