Description
### Problem
The command `git clone` has options `--bare` or `--mirror` but these are not accessible through the UI.
### Proposal
Show radiobuttons for the allowed cloning options in the UI.
### Prior Art (Optional)
Gitg allows "bare" cloning.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by tracing the UI path that invokes git clone and inspect how clone options are currently passed. Compare the supported --bare and --mirror options with Gitg's behavior, then confirm that the UI exposes the allowed choices and that cloning with each choice produces the expected result.
