title: Can I specify a new local repository in Git for a cloned repository?
body: <p>I have a web application template created in Visual Studio 2012 using GIT for source control, but only on my local machine. I am now ready to use the template for deployments.</p>
  
  <p>I don't want to simply create a branch for deployments as these will never be merged back into the master. Instead, I have cloned the repository for the template into a new directory.</p>
  
  <p>I notice that for this second directory, Remote is set to "origin" and the URL points to the original master. I would like for this to be pushed to its own independent repository, but I have not figured out how to set this up. Also, I thought that each clone of a repository created another repository, but if this is the case I do not see it and I do not know how to specify it as the repository to be pushed to.</p>
