[v3,2/7] clone: use more conventional config/option layering

Commit Message

From: Sean Barag <[e-mail]>

Parsing command-line options before reading from config required careful
handling to ensure CLI options were treated with higher priority.  Read
config first to let parsed CLI naively overwrite matching config values.
