+Clones an existing repository, creating a local copy of it.

+- Use `git clone <url>` to clone an existing repository from `<url>` to a local directory. The directory's name will be based on the name of the cloned repository.
+- Alternatively, use `git clone <url> [<directory>]` to clone the repository into the specified local `<directory>`.
+
+```sh
+git clone <url> [<directory>]
+```
+
+```sh
+git clone https://github.com/30-seconds/30-seconds-of-code.git
+# Clones the repository in a new directory named '30-seconds-of-code'
+cd 30-seconds-of-code
+
+git clone https://github.com/30-seconds/30-seconds-of-code.git my-project
+# Clones the repository in a new directory named 'my-project'
+cd my-project
