Cloning an Azure repository in Sourcetree is a straightforward process that requires a few simple steps.
First, you need to have Sourcetree installed on your computer, with your Azure credentials configured.
Next, open Sourcetree and click on the "Clone a Repository" button in the toolbar.
This will open the Clone Repository dialog box, where you can enter the URL of the Azure repository you want to clone.
The URL is in the format of https://dev.azure.com/{organization}/{project}/_git/{repository}, where {organization} is your Azure organization, {project} is your Azure project, and {repository} is the name of the repository you want to clone.
You can obtain the URL from the Azure DevOps website or from the Azure repository itself.
Once you have entered the URL, click on the "Clone" button to start the cloning process.
Sourcetree will then connect to the Azure repository and download a copy of the repository to your local machine.
This process may take a few minutes, depending on the size of the repository and the speed of your internet connection.
