## Description

(DVCS) Use this command to display a list of remote specifications.

A DVCS remote shared server is not related to the concept of a remote depot in the P4 Server Administration Documentation.

## Options

With no options specified `p4 remotes` lists all remote specifications defined on this server.

Option | Description
--- | ---
`-e namefilter` | Lists remote specs with a name that matches the `namefilter` pattern. For example:
    p4 remotes -e svr-dev-rel*
The `-e` option uses the server’s normal case-sensitivity rules.
`-E namefilter` | Performs the same operation as the `-e` option, but makes the matching case-insensitive even on a case-sensitive server.
`-m count` | Limits output to the specified number of remote specs.
`-u user` | Lists remote specs owned by the specified user.
