 One can list the remotes of a repository using `git remote -v` command.
 The default name of a remote is 'origin'.

+The repository I am trying to clone is too big.  Is there an alternative
+way of cloning it in lesser space?::
+	A good way to save space when cloning a repository is by using
+	`partial clones`.  A partial clone will clone the full history of
+	the repository but will skip out the entities specified by the
+	`--filter` option one uses in `git clone`.  Any entity which has
+	not been cloned to save space can be cloned on-demand (hence this
+	presumes that the user has an always-on network connection to the
+	original repository).  See linkgit:partial-clone[1].
