File .gitconfig can be use to acheive the same, We can store username and password in it. To do that there are two ways.

Paste below content in that file.
[user]
email = [email protected]
name = [email protected]
password = yourgitpasswordhere
[credential]
helper = store
Change the email/name/pass accordingly.
At end run git clone as per your URL.
git clone https://example.com.com/someurl.git
