There is no official pronunciation. It is an abbreviation for "et cetera" and used as for system-wide configuration files and system databases.
Everyone I know pronounces it "et see"
Everyone I know who is non native English speaking say "slash ee tee cee", otherwise, looks like there is no consensus ...
Everywhere I have been has said "et cetera" or "E T C" never heard of "et see".
NB - also it can be said 'X cetera'.
Purely anecdotal, but
Sometimes people say 'slash' beforehand depending on context and audience.
