Get Start with Bitbucket & Git

Get Starts

1. Sign up for a Bitbucket account at https://bitbucket.org

2. (Optional) If your Bitbucket account uses a different Email Address, you can add an alias here.

   

3. To avoid the need to supply your password for every push, you can store your SSH public key here and get authenticated by SSH key.

   

4. (Optional) If you manage repositories via third-party applications (such as SourceTree), it is recommended to use an App Password instead of your Bitbucket password.

5. Go to Git Scm - https://git-scm.com/downloads and install Git. Check if your installation is successful:

   $ git -v
   git version 2.39.5 (Apple Git-154)
   

6. On your machine, set your name and email.

   # Global across your machine
   git config --global user.name "I am Me"
   git config --global user.email "me@example.com"
   
   # For a single repo
   cd /path/to/repo
   git config user.name "I am Me"
   git config user.email "me@example.com"
   

7. Check the config you just set using this command.

   git config --list
   

That's it

You are all set to start using Bitbucket and Git.
