New feature: Downloads
Ask, and you shall receive. We’ve just unrolled a new feature on the site, Downloads. This lets you upload any file you want to your repository, be it public or private. The files are uploaded directly to Amazon S3, so our servers won’t even break a sweat. After the upload is complete, your file will […]
Repository search filtering
It’s been amazing to watch all of the projects being added to Bitbucket since modifying our pricing plan in late September. The growth of your public and private repositories even has us looking to expand our diskspace sooner than we original planned! With all of this growth, we’ve noticed that it’s sometimes difficult to sift […]
Introducing groups
Yesterday we rolled out an new way to better manage your teams through the use of groups. Here’s what the group feature gives you: create unlimited custom groups names that can be assigned access to a repository with read, write or admin access groups can be configured so that newly created repositories by default have […]
Dress up your repository with a README
Have you ever thought it strange that Bitbucket displays READMEs on the “source” screen rather than the “overview” screen? Many repositories have the landing page set to “source” to accommodate this quirk. The natural home for READMEs is the overview screen, so we’ve made this change. In the short term, we’ll continue to display READMEs […]
Now with Code Commenting and Mentions
Two months ago we revamped our pull request feature to help teams using DVCS and Bitbucket increase their productivity. One bit was missing though; the ability to easily have a conversation around code changes. This is why we are excited to announce threaded commenting for pull requests and changesets! Below is a screenshot of a recent […]
Pull requests with side-by-side diffs
Bitbucket now has the option to view file changes—IDE-style—with side-by-side diffs: With both versions of the file shown in full with synchronized scrolling, you can more quickly grok what has changed, making code review easier in: pull requests the compare view individual commits Show me more: expandable context Unified diffs are great for reviewing small […]

Bitbucket has gone mobile with the help of several community developed mobile apps. Whether you are using an iPhone or Android device there are several apps to help keep tabs on Bitbucket source. […]

Make your Bitbucket experience faster by dropping the mouse and taking advantage of the new keyboard shortcuts. Keyboard shortcuts provide a quick and easy way of navigating through Bitbucket and performing common (repetitive) actions without having to take your fingers off the keyboard. Pages you’ll find keyboard shortcuts useful for include: source code browser commit history […]
Pull requests across branches
Bitbucket already supports fork-based pull requests, and while this model is great for open source projects – where new contributors can fork your repository and submit a pull request – it can feel heavy-handed when working in a small team. Small (and large) teams rejoice! Today we are excited to announce the ability to create pull requests between […]
Label your SSH keys
We are happy to announce that you can now add labels to your SSH keys. This makes managing multiple SSH keys much simpler. Lets be honest, this blog should have happened a while ago and for that we say, thanks for your patience. If you want to update your existing keys just hit the edit […]

Today, we’re happy to introduce Repo Transfers to make it easier to share repositories amongst your team. Repo Transfers allow you to change the ownership of a repository to another team or user account. Transfer any […]
Deployment Keys Now Available on Bitbucket
We’ve received a lot of requests for this feature, and our recent Innovation Week has given us the time to follow through on this request. We’re pleased to introduce Deployment Keys for Bitbucket. Deployment keys allow users to clone/pull source from a repository over SSH using Git and Hg without having to use up one […]
Building Inline Comments for Pull Requests and Commits
At Bitbucket (and throughout Atlassian) we are constantly dogfooding our own products. This helps us flesh out requirements and find bugs. So, naturally, we host the Bitbucket code in Bitbucket as well. We use pull requests to review team members’ code before merging it in and deploying. And, like many of you, we have been […]
Syncing and merging come to Bitbucket
When developing on a feature branch or a fork, your code can often get out of date. There are a number of reasons this might happen: You’re concentrating on a feature rather than syncing. You’re not yet ready to worry about integrating just yet. You’re returning to a stale branch or fork to pick up […]
