+## SSH vs HTTPS URLs
+
+If your Git provider (e.g. GitLab, GitHub Enterprise) restricts HTTPS cloning, use an SSH URL instead:
+
+```text
+# HTTPS (may fail if HTTP cloning is disabled)
+https://gitlab.example.com/user/dotfiles.git
+
+# SSH (uses the workspace's SSH key)
+git@gitlab.example.com:user/dotfiles.git
+```
+
+When a Git provider has HTTPS cloning disabled server-side, the clone will silently fail (the `.git` folder may exist but the working tree will be empty). SSH URLs avoid this because they authenticate with the workspace's SSH key instead of a token-based HTTPS flow.
