Remotes

The Remotes tab manages your repository’s remote connections. It can appear as a mode within Git Settings or as a standalone content tab.

Remote List

Each remote is displayed as a row showing:

  • Name (e.g., origin)
  • Fetch URL
  • Push URL (shown separately if it differs from the fetch URL)
  • Action buttons — Edit, Rename, Remove, Prune

Adding a Remote

Click Add Remote to show the form. Enter a name and URL, then confirm.

Editing a Remote

Click Edit on a remote to expand the inline URL editor. You can optionally set a separate push URL by enabling the toggle.

Renaming a Remote

Click Rename to expand the inline name editor. Confirm the new name to apply.

Removing a Remote

Click Remove to delete the remote with a confirmation dialog.

Pruning

Two prune operations are available per remote:

  • Prune branches — remove stale remote-tracking branches that no longer exist on the remote
  • Prune tags — remove local tags that no longer exist on the remote
