Git clone fail due to repository not recognized

I was told that I could git clone a document using the following command (with some words changed for privacy, so it's not a real repository, but the format is unchanged):

git clone docs@docs.company.org/sub-dir/project_name_4

I am getting the error message telling me that the repository doesn't exist.

Obviously it's possible that the repository really doesn't exist - meaning that I was given the wrong path for the repository. But before I go back to the person who gave me the link, I wanted to check that there isn't anything dumb I'm doing wrong. Does this look like the correct format for example? Am I missing any commands?

Any help is appreciated.

Either the url is wrong, or you don't have the permission to access it.

I can't be certain, but you probably meant git clone docs@docs.company.org:sub-dir/project_name_4 (with : instead of / to separate the host and the path)
