How to clone a bitbucket repository?

Question

Getting back to work after a while it seems I don't know how to clone a bitbucket repository. Any idea why I get the "not found" error?

git clone --verbose https://bitbucket.org/helllamer/mod_openid
Cloning into 'mod_openid'...
remote: Not Found
fatal: repository 'https://bitbucket.org/helllamer/mod_openid/' not found

System:

git version 1.9.1
uname -a Linux openvpnas2 3.13.0-44-generic #73-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 16 00:22:43 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Answer 1

On the left side of bitbucket screen there is a vertical column with buttons. The second button from the top is "CLONE" button . Press on this button .You will get HTTP address .

Copy this address and use in git in regular way :

git clone <HTTP address of repo>

Answer 2

This is a Mercurial repository, not a Git repository. Bitbucket supports both systems .

Clone with:

hg clone https://bitbucket.org/helllamer/mod_openid

For more information about Mercurial please see its Wikipedia page .

Answer 3

It is simple and same as in GitHub. Go to Bitbucket repository from your browser and copy url. Open a terminal in desired location, where you want to clone the repository, and then type this:

git clone <copied url of repo.>

Then it ask your Bitbucket username and password. After providing them, you can clone it.

Answer 4

Most probably it is a private repository where you have access permissions and I do not. What you need to do is move your mouse on the three dots on the left pane at the top (refer the image) and then you'd get a pop up where you'd find the clone option. Click on that and you'd get a command like hg clone bitbucket-url (It is a Mercurial repository as mentioned by Chris). Copy that and paste it on your terminal. You'll be able to clone that if you have permissions to access the repository.

Answer 5

The following works for me for Mercurial repository.

hg clone https://[YourUserName]@bitbucket.org/tr_radlab/radlab-for-windows/branch/default

Put your user name in place of [YourUserName] in above Url.

Answer 6

充其量你只需要简单地下载，如果你不是 cmd 类型，你可以使用 sourcetree 或使用 Mercurial 来享受克隆。

Answer 7

To clone a repository with HTTPS , first you should generate an access token (you can't use your login password anymore) and then clone the repository with this generated token.

Generate access token:

Personal settings > App passwords > create app password

Clone the repository:

git clone https://YOUR-USERNAME@bitbucket.org/YOUR-REPOSITORY

It will prompt you for generated token.

#!/bin/bash

# Set your Bitbucket username and password
BITBUCKET_USERNAME='<<your username>>'
BITBUCKET_APP_PASSWORD='<<your password>>'

# Set the user or team name whose repositories you want to clone
TEAM_NAME='<<team name>>'
LIMIT=50

# Generate a timestamp in the format YYYY-MM-DD
timestamp=$(date +%Y%m%d%H%M%S)

# Get the current date in the format YYYY-MM-DD
DATE=$(date +%F)

# Create a backup directory with the current date and proper permissions
BACKUP_DIR="backup_$DATE"
mkdir $BACKUP_DIR
chmod 700 $BACKUP_DIR

while true; do
  # Use the Bitbucket API to get a list of repositories for the specified team, for the current page
  REPOS=$(curl -u "$BITBUCKET_USERNAME:$BITBUCKET_APP_PASSWORD" -X GET "https://api.bitbucket.org/2.0/repositories/$TEAM_NAME?pagelen=$LIMIT&page=$PAGE_NUM")

  # Exit the loop if no repositories are returned
  if [[ "$REPOS" == *"\"values\":[]"* ]]; then
    break
  fi

  # Parse the JSON to extract the repository slugs
  REPOS=$(echo "$REPOS" | jq -r '.values[].slug')

  # Clone each repository
  for REPO in $REPOS; do
    git clone "https://$BITBUCKET_USERNAME:$BITBUCKET_APP_PASSWORD@bitbucket.org/$TEAM_NAME/$REPO.git"  $BACKUP_DIR/$REPO
  done

  # Increment the page number
  PAGE_NUM=$((PAGE_NUM+1))
done
