 In your terminal of choice, navigate to the root of your Quartz folder. Then, run the following commands, replacing `REMOTE-URL` with the URL you just copied from the previous step.
 
 ```bash
-# add your repository
-git remote add origin REMOTE-URL
+# list all the repositories that are tracked
+git remote -v
 
-# track the main quartz repository for updates
+# if the origin doesn't match your own repository, set your repository as the origin
+git remote set-url origin REMOTE-URL
+
+# if you don't have upstream as a remote, add it so updates work
 git remote add upstream https://github.com/jackyzha0/quartz.git
 ```
 
-To verify that you set the remote URL correctly, run the following command.
+Then, you can sync the content to upload it to your repository. This is a helper command that will do the initial push of your content to your repository.
 
 ```bash
-git remote -v
+npx quartz sync --no-pull
 ```
 
-Then, you can sync the content to upload it to your repository.
+> [!warning]- `fatal: --[no-]autostash option is only valid with --rebase`
+> You may have an outdated version of `git`. Updating `git` should fix this issue.
 
-```bash
-npx quartz sync
-```
+> [!warning]- `fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly`
+> It might be due to Git's default buffer size. You can fix it by increasing the buffer with this command:
+>
+> ```bash
+> git config http.postBuffer 524288000
+> ```
 
-> [!hint]
-> If `npx quartz sync` fails with `fatal: --[no-]autostash option is only valid with --rebase`, you
-> may have an outdated version of `git`. Updating `git` should fix this issue.
+In future updates, you can simply run `npx quartz sync` every time you want to push updates to your repository.
+
+> [!hint] Flags and options
+> For full help options, you can run `npx quartz sync --help`.
+>
+> Most of these have sensible defaults but you can override them if you have a custom setup:
+>
+> - `-d` or `--directory`: the content folder. This is normally just `content`
+> - `-v` or `--verbose`: print out extra logging information
+> - `--commit` or `--no-commit`: whether to make a `git` commit for your changes
+> - `--push` or `--no-push`: whether to push updates to your GitHub fork of Quartz
+> - `--pull` or `--no-pull`: whether to try and pull in any updates from your GitHub fork (i.e. from other devices) before pushing
