    Now, pushing to this remote will push to both upstreams simultaneiously. Fetch and pull from this remote will still pull from the original repo only.

    **Tip:** If you always want to push to both upstreams simultaneously, you might want to use the `origin` remote. If you only sometimes want to push to both, you might use a remote name like `both`.

    Sometimes you need to keep two upstreams in sync with eachother. For example, you might need to both push to your testing environment and your GitHub repo at the same time. In order to do this simultaneously in one git command, here's a little trick to add multiple push URLs to a single remote.

    Once you have a remote set up for one of your upstreams, run this command with the same remote name and the URL of the second remote:

    **Note:** The first time you run this, it might overwrite the default push URL so you'll have to re-run the same command again with the original URL remote URL.
