+'set-branches'::
+
+Changes the list of branches tracked by the named remote.
+This can be used to track a subset of the available remote branches
+after the initial setup for a remote.
++
+The named branches will be interpreted as if specified with the

+'set-url'::

+Changes URL remote points to. Sets first URL remote points to matching
+regex <oldurl> (first URL if no <oldurl> is given) to <newurl>. If
+<oldurl> doesn't match any URL, error occurs and nothing is changed.

+With '--push', push URLs are manipulated instead of fetch URLs.
++
+With '--add', instead of changing some URL, new URL is added.
++
+With '--delete', instead of changing some URL, all URLs matching
+regex <url> are deleted. Trying to delete all non-push URLs is an
+error.
