Update get-source-code documentation with clarified HTTPS/SSH instructions

Description

Clarified the steps for cloning and pushing repositories using both HTTPS and SSH.

Verified and documented that submodules update correctly via SSH, even when their URLs in .gitmodules are set to HTTPS.

Added a new section explaining how to set up a Personal Access Token (PAT) for HTTPS, which avoids repeated credential prompts.
