Help With Task 3 Git Remote Work

Can someone help with the following git command please?

I've got my own copy of the repository hosted at http://tommysgitstuff.com/git_basics/cool_stuff.git. What command would you use to add my copy of the repository as a remote? Give the remote the name "tommy."

I have tried git push tommy and a few other commands but I have run out of ideas.

git remote add tommy http://tommysgitstuff.com/git_basics/cool_stuff.git

Hey thanks George, that worked. I may be missing something but this wasn't touched upon in the training videos?

It was in the 'Cloning' video.

Ahh cool, just re-watched and I get it now :) thank you for your help.

I had the same problem. I got stuck too.. thanks George...

THX, G
