I missed an earlier part of the same page:
addrepo --from-repofile=REPO_CONFIGURATION_FILE_URL
[--create-missing-dir] [--overwrite] [--save-filename=FILENAME]
Adds a new repositories configuration file specified by URL or
local path.
The file is copied without changes. The destination file name can
be defined using the --save-filename option, otherwise it is
taken from the source specification. If the .repo extension is
missing from the destination filename, it will be added.
The destination directory path is the first path stored in the
reposdir option (by default /etc/yum.repos.d). Overwriting/re‐
placing an existing file can be enabled using the --overwrite
option. Before the new repositories configuration file is fi‐
nally saved, it is analyzed and tested for validity. Repository
IDs are also tested. Repositories with the same ID must not
be defined in other configuration files.
You get the point. It's "addrepo", not "add-repo".
