That merely stands for "the rest of your original command". In other words, the proposition is to add that "-c" command-line option and the indicated argument to it _in front_ of the command name itself - "clone" - and the rest of the parameters you pass to the command, that is, any other options and the URL you pass to the command when it fails.

This thing is called an ellipsis [1], and Johannes used it for intentional omission of text which is not relevant.
