9.1The remote command

The git remote command lets us manage our set of tracked repositories. Here's how we use it:

List Remote Repositories: To see a list of our remote repositories, we use git remote -v.
Add a remote repository: We can add a remote repository with git remote add <name> <url>. For example, to add a remote repository named origin.

Remove a remote repository: To remove a remote repository, we use git remote remove <name>. For example, to remove the remote repository named origin.

Rename a remote repository: To rename a remote repository, we use git remote rename <old-name> <new-name>. For example, to rename the remote repository named origin to production.
