origin
The repo on the server that you have cloned from is known on your local machine configuration as a remote that is named "origin"
A convention
The origin thus is a reference
An origin reference points to the URL of the server repo

An SOF topic on origin and upstream
satya - 4/15/2018, 11:01:05 AM
Upstream
An origin is yours
An origin is where you sync your work with a server
You and Origin - Happy pair
Upstream is where the origin itself is cloned from
You can see upstream as read only
You can always
fetch from up stream
work on it
push to origin
Apparently
//from upstream
git fetch upstream
//for origin
git pull
git push
