'set-head'::
Sets or deletes the default branch (`$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD`) for
the named remote. Having a default branch for a remote is not required,
but allows the name of the remote to be specified in lieu of a specific
branch. For example, if the default branch for `origin` is set to
`master`, then `origin` may be specified wherever you would normally
specify `origin/master`.

With `-d`, `$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD` is deleted.
+
With `-a`, the remote is queried to determine its `HEAD`, then
`$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD` is set to the same branch. e.g., if the remote
`HEAD` is pointed at `next`, "`git remote set-head origin -a`" will set
`$GIT_DIR/refs/remotes/origin/HEAD` to `refs/remotes/origin/next`. This will
only work if `refs/remotes/origin/next` already exists; if not it must be
fetched first.
+
Use `<branch>` to set `$GIT_DIR/remotes/<name>/HEAD` explicitly. e.g., "git
remote set-head origin master" will set `$GIT_DIR/refs/remotes/origin/HEAD` to
`refs/remotes/origin/master`. This will only work if
`refs/remotes/origin/master` already exists; if not it must be fetched first.

'show'::
Gives some information about the remote <name>.
