### Synopsis

    ppl remote [-v | --verbose]
    ppl remote rename <old> <new>

### Description

This command is an alias of `git remote`. It is intended to make it more
convenient to use git to synchronise your address book. See the documentation
for [git pull](/documentation/commands/pull) for more details.

Note that this command literally executes the git command `remote` in the
address book directory. If you don't have the git CLI tool installed, this
command will not work.
