remote work

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."

Isn't this git pull or push?

Neither push nor pull here, because this question is merely asking you to add a remote link to the local git repo, here's command to do it

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