Git — Remote Repository

Remote Operations

# Add remote
git remote add origin https://github.com/user/repo.git

# View remotes
git remote -v

# Fetch
git fetch origin

# Push
git push origin main

# Pull
git pull origin main

Remote Branches

# List
git branch -r

# Track
git checkout -b local origin/remote

# Delete remote
git push origin --delete branch

Upstream

# Set upstream
git push -u origin main

# View upstream
git branch -vv

Fork Workflow

# Fork on GitHub

# Clone your fork
git clone https://github.com/you/repo.git

# Add upstream
git remote add upstream https://github.com/original/repo.git

# Sync upstream
git fetch upstream
git merge upstream/main
