how to specify multiple remote repositories

So here is what I am trying to do.    I have downloaded some source from git for a project.

I would like to be able to make changes locally in my own git repo  and also push these changes to another git server (where I host the app)

I seem to be able to do all of this ok but the only issue is rubymine does not seem to remember where I pushed my changes to.

example   

I do a checkout from github of a project that I have readonly access too.
I make some customizations to the code and push it out to my own get repository server (an instance of gitolite)
Then in the future I can get new versions of the code from github and have them merge with the customizations I have made and push again over to gitolite.

The problem is rubymine doesn't seem to remember the url to my gitolite server and I can't figure out where to specify it so it remembers.
Currently I have to type the url into the remote field every time.

Since this is a dropdown it seems I should be able to set up multiple options for where to push my code to.

Maybe I am going about the whole thing wrong so if anyone has any suggestions it would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Dal

Michael,

If you add the second server as another remote to your .git/config file, it will appear in the dropdown list of the Push dialog.

For example, here are the remotes specified in my .git/config file:

[remote "origin"]
  fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
  url = /Users/loki/sandbox/git/parent
[remote "github"]
  fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
  url = git@github.com:jbklikh/git_test.git

Here is the screenshot of the Push dialog:

can you add the word git to your title? I don't want to be routed to unrelated posts. I want to push to multiple deployment severs/remotes.
