====== adding a remote ======
If you clone a repo, the repo you cloned from will automatically be configured as a remote named "origin".  If you want to set up a remote after the fact, do this<code>
$ git remote add origin /path/to/project.git
</code>

Now tell git to update your remote:<code>
$ git push origin master
Everything up-to-date
</code>

To make sure the merges work (git push/pull/fetch), do this (replace master with any other branch if you want tracking):<code>
git config branch.master.remote origin
git config branch.master.merge refs/heads/master
</code>
