About remote repositories

GitHub's collaborative approach to development depends on publishing commits from your local repository to GitHub for other people to view, fetch, and update.

About remote repositories

A remote URL is Git's fancy way of saying "the place where your code is stored." That URL could be your repository on GitHub, or another user's fork, or even on a completely different server.

You can only push to two types of URL addresses:

  • An HTTPS URL like https://HOSTNAME/user/repo.git
  • An SSH URL, like git@HOSTNAME:user/repo.git

Git associates a remote URL with a name, and your default remote is usually called origin.

Creating remote repositories

You can use the git remote add command to match a remote URL with a name. For example, you'd type the following in the command line:

git remote add origin <REMOTE_URL>

This associates the name origin with the REMOTE_URL.

You can use the command git remote set-url to change a remote's URL.

Choosing a URL for your remote repository

There are several ways to clone repositories available on GitHub.

When you view a repository while signed in to your account, the URLs you can use to clone the project onto your computer are available below the repository details.

For information on setting or changing your remote URL, see Managing remote repositories.

Cloning with HTTPS URLs

The https:// clone URLs are available on all repositories, regardless of visibility. https:// clone URLs work even if you are behind a firewall or proxy.

When you git clone, git fetch, git pull, or git push to a private remote repository using HTTPS URLs on the command line, Git will ask for your GitHub username and password. 当 Git 提示你输入密码时,请输入你的personal access token。 或者,可以使用 Git 凭据管理器等凭据帮助程序。 Git 的基于密码的身份验证已被删除,取而代之的是更安全的身份验证方法。 有关详细信息,请参阅“管理个人访问令牌”。

Tip

Cloning with SSH URLs

SSH URLs provide access to a Git repository via SSH, a secure protocol. To use these URLs, you must generate an SSH keypair on your computer and add the public key to your account on GitHub. For more information, see 通过 SSH 连接到 GitHub.

When you git clone, git fetch, git pull, or git push to a remote repository using SSH URLs, you'll be prompted for a password and must provide your SSH key passphrase. For more information, see 使用 SSH 密钥密码.

Tip

You can use an SSH URL to clone a repository to your computer, or as a secure way of deploying your code to production servers. You can also use SSH agent forwarding with your deploy script to avoid managing keys on the server. For more information, see 使用 SSH 代理转发.

Cloning with GitHub CLI

You can also install GitHub CLI to use GitHub workflows in your terminal. For more information, see 关于 GitHub CLI.

Cloning with Subversion

Note

GitHub 3.13 版中将删除对 Subversion 的支持。 有关详细信息,请参阅 GitHub 博客

You can also use a Subversion client to access any repository on GitHub. Subversion offers a different feature set than Git. For more information, see Subversion 和 Git 有哪些区别?

You can also access repositories on GitHub from Subversion clients. For more information, see Subversion 客户端支持.
