+up to point at remote's `<master>` branch. See also the set-head command.
++
+In mirror mode, enabled with `\--mirror`, the refs will not be stored
+in the 'refs/remotes/' namespace, but in 'refs/heads/'.  This option
+only makes sense in bare repositories.  If a remote uses mirror
+mode, furthermore, `git push` will always behave as if `\--mirror`
+was passed.
+
+'rename'::
+
+Rename the remote named <old> to <new>. All remote tracking branches and
+configuration settings for the remote are updated.
++
+In case <old> and <new> are the same, and <old> is a file under
+`$GIT_DIR/remotes` or `$GIT_DIR/branches`, the remote is converted to
+the configuration file format.
+
+'rm'::
+
+Remove the remote named <name>. All remote tracking branches and
+configuration settings for the remote are removed.
+
+'set-head'::
+
+Sets or deletes the default branch (`$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD`) for
+the named remote. Having a default branch for a remote is not required,
+but allows the name of the remote to be specified in lieu of a specific
+branch. For example, if the default branch for `origin` is set to
+`master`, then `origin` may be specified wherever you would normally
+specify `origin/master`.
++
+With `-d`, `$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD` is deleted.
++
+With `-a`, the remote is queried to determine its `HEAD`, then
+`$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD` is set to the same branch. e.g., if the remote
+`HEAD` is pointed at `next`, "`git remote set-head origin -a`" will set
+`$GIT_DIR/refs/remotes/origin/HEAD` to `refs/remotes/origin/next`. This will
+only work if `refs/remotes/origin/next` already exists; if not it must be
+fetched first.
++
+Use `<branch>` to set `$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD` explicitly. e.g., "git
+remote set-head origin master" will set `$GIT_DIR/refs/remotes/origin/HEAD` to
+`refs/remotes/origin/master`. This will only work if
+`refs/remotes/origin/master` already exists; if not it must be fetched first.
