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".
