Q1: What is the URL and command to clone my repository?

Click on <> Code first. Then click on the green Code with the download symbol. Then click on the paste icon to copy the URL for the clone.

Then use git clone <URL> where URL is the pasted one. Use the HTTPS URL if you do not mind typing username/password. Use the SSH URL if you do but do not mind setting up SSH keys.
