Examples
- git remote add <server alias> <URL>
- adds a remote server
- Note that although these URLs typically end in ".git" (on GitHub and similar services), they're actually the user-relative path to the folder containing the Git repository. (A valid repository will always contain a .git folder.)
- git remote -v
- lists aliases of remote servers
- git remote show
- seems to just list remote server aliases
- git remote show <server alias>
- displays information about a remote server
from the Manpage

$ git branch -r
origin/HEAD -> origin/master
origin/master
$ git remote add staging git://git.kernel.org/.../gregkh/staging.git
$ git remote
origin
staging
$ git fetch staging
...
From git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging
* [new branch] master -> staging/master
* [new branch] staging-linus -> staging/staging-linus
* [new branch] staging-next -> staging/staging-next
$ git branch -r
