A remote URL is Git's fancy way of saying "the place where your code is stored." That URL could be your repository on GitHub, or another user's fork, or even on a completely different server. You can only push to two types of URL addresses: An HTTPS URL like https://github.com/user/repo.git.
The git fetch command is used to download the contents from a remote repository. Developers use the git fetch command and the git checkout command to work with code on a different branch. The git fetch command is similar to git pull. git pull directly changes your local working copy of a repository.
When you want to show an URL of remote branches, try:
git remote -v
If you have the name of the remote, you will be able with git 2.7 (Q4 2015), to use the new git remote get-url command:
git remote get-url origin
(nice pendant of git remote set-url origin <newurl>)
