The following section

Cloning an empty repository

I clicked both options, but I am unsure which one I selected to make sure:

But in:

Cloning a repository

these buttons highlights as the image below shows the highlighted ones:

or this one below:

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

Just a suggestion though.

@VimalaMoger Thanks for opening an issue! I'm not totally clear on what the problem is. Is it...that you can't tell which one is selected because the interface is unclear?

Cloning an empty repository: As per the instruction:
steps:
1, I created an Empty repository:
2. To clone the repository using HTTPS, I clicked the option HTTPS

It is just with the cloning options using HTTPS or SSH.
It would be nicer if the tabs(options) were highlighted when the user clicks on them

In the documentation as well:

Cloning an empty repository

In step 2:
The text under "Quick setup" click
It neither says to click 'HTTPS' then click "copy" icon, nor does the image below show the highlighted 'HTTPS'
By default, either one must be highlighted

@VimalaMoger It sounds like you might have a problem with the UI that's separate from the documentation. If so, that will need to either go to the support team or to the feedback discussion. Feedback might be better.

If you're just talking about the screenshot, though, we're honestly trying to remove screenshots, because the UI updates too quickly for the documentation to keep up. I could check and see how necessary this one is, and we might update it if it's deemed necessary, but it also might just get removed entirely.

Testing this myself, it looks like it doesn't say to click on HTTPS because that's the default option. You don't need to click on it to use it, unless you click on SSH and need to go back.
