Interactive password support for Ansible clone of Azure Repository

What specific syntax needs to be used to get Ansible to clone a git repository from Azure Repositories?

The repository URL is https://[email protected]/OrganizationName/ProjectName/_git/RepositoryName and we are able to clone it manually in an interactive shell by providing a requested password which we possess as follows:

$ git clone https://[email protected]/OrganizationName/ProjectName/_git/RepositoryName  
Password for 'https://[email protected]':

However, the Ansible example task that we have from the official Ansible documentation does not include any mention of a password, as follows:

- name: Clone a repo 
  git:
    repo: https://[email protected]/OrganizationName/ProjectName/_git/RepositoryName
    dest: /src/RepositoryName

Your password must be in your repo link as below

--- 
- name: Clone repo playbook
  hosts: dev

  vars_prompt: 
    - name: "git_user" 
      prompt: "Enter your git username" 
      private: no
    - name: "git_password" 
      prompt: "Password for 'https://[email protected]'"
      private: yes 

  tasks:
  - name: Clone a repo 
    git:
      repo: https://{{ git_user | urlencode }}:{{ git_password | urlencode }}@dev.azure.com/OrganizationName/ProjectName/_git/RepositoryName
      dest: /src/RepositoryName
