+
+1. Check Your Current Remote
+Since you’ve cloned a project, it already has one remote configured (usually named origin). You can verify this by running:
+bash
+
+`git remote -v`
+
+This will show the URL of the public repository you cloned from (e.g., https://github.com/user/public-repo.git).
+
+2. Add a Second Remote
+To push to your private repository, you need to add it as a new remote. Let’s call it private. Run:
+bash
+
+`git remote add private http://gitea.damconsulting.net:3000/peskyadmin/DAM-static-site.git`
+
+
+
+`git remote -v` shows remotes
+
+
+3. Pull from the Public Remote
+To keep your local repository updated with changes from the public remote, use:
+bash
+
+`git pull origin main`
+
+Replace <branch> with the branch you’re working on (e.g., main or master). This fetches and merges updates from the public repo into your local branch.
+
+
+4. Push to the Private Remote
+After making your changes locally and committing them (with git add and git commit), you can push them to your private repository:
+bash
+
+`git push private main`
+
+This sends your commits to the specified branch in your private repo, not the public one.
