git远程-v的output详细信息

Question

When I send command git remote -v

Like following result was returned.

backup  ssh://git.test.com:2222/product/sample/backup/user (fetch)
backup  ssh://git.test.com:2222/product/Sample/backup/user (push)
origin  ssh://git.test.com:2222/product/Sample (fetch)
origin  ssh://git.test.com:2222/product/Sample (push)
share   ssh://git.test.com:2222/product/Sample/share/user (fetch)
share   ssh://git.test.com:2222/product/Sample/share/user (push)

• What is the difference between backup, origin, share?
• Why the url starts with ssh? how to see repository in console?

Answer 1

Those URLS come from your local git configuration:

cd /path/to/repo
git config -local -l 

You can add as many remote URL as you want with git remote set-url --add origin... , either with HTTPS or SSH.

While origin generally references the original remote repository you have cloned, backup and share are only meaningful for the one who has added them.

I would guess in this case:

• origin : original repository, read-only (you cannot push back)
• backup : personal backup for that repository, in the user namespace of the remote Git repository hosting server
• shared : shared remote repository, accessed by other users, where you modification are visible (by other contributors)
