    git remote -v

    will list them. The source for this information can be seen by inspecting .git/config:

    cat .git/config

    The config file in the .git directory at the base of your repository contains all the configuration in a plain-text format.

    You’ll see something like this:

    [remote "origin"]
        url = git@git.assembla.com:myRepo.git
        fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

    The url line (in git config parlance, the value of remote.origin.url) contains the remote URL.

    The other way to find out is by executing git config remote.origin.url:

    $ git config remote.origin.url
git@git.assembla.com:myRepo.git
