How to see remote url in git

The simplest way:

git remote -v

# result similar to the following
origin  git@github.com:codeverland/codever.git (fetch)
origin  git@github.com:codeverland/codever.git (push)
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

To get only the remote URL:

git config --get remote.origin.url

# result similar to the following
git@github.com:codeverland/codever.git
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

In order to get more details about a particular remote, use the git remote show [remote-name] command

git remote show origin # here "origin" is the remote name

# result similar to the following
* remote origin
  Fetch URL: git@github.com:codeverland/codever.git
  Push  URL: git@github.com:codeverland/codever.git
  HEAD branch: master
  Remote branches:
    dependabot/npm_and_yarn/backend/aws-sdk-2.814.0  new (next fetch will store in remotes/origin)
    dependabot/npm_and_yarn/backend/nth-check-2.0.1  new (next fetch will store in remotes/origin)
    dependabot/npm_and_yarn/backend/path-parse-1.0.7 new (next fetch will store in remotes/origin)
    dependabot/npm_and_yarn/path-parse-1.0.7         new (next fetch will store in remotes/origin)
