Shoudn't one be in the local repo itself to add a remote?

Description
In the part 3 (Option 2 - Use a command line interface with git), step e), I got an error message when I tried to follow the instructions exactly. Turns out that one had to move to the newly created repo locally. This may be obvious to experienced git users, but to me (new user) it was not.
Maybe add something like:
e) Now, enter the repository that you just created, with the command `cd` + `lessonname`. You should now be within your local repository. You can check this in the console by looking at the address that is automatically printed after your username above the command prompt.
f) Lastly, add the Carpentry repository you forked from as a remote using the format `git remote add upstream https://github.com/url/for/lesson`.
