How do I transfer repository from one Bitbucket to another Bitbucket?

Hi, @sanka_gunamuni! ✨

To transfer a repository from one Bitbucket account/workspace to another, you have two main options:

Option 1: Transfer Ownership

1. Go to the repo in Bitbucket.
2. Click Repository settings > Transfer repository (at the bottom).
3. Enter the destination workspace ID and confirm. The repo moves with full history, issues, branches, etc.

You must be the repository admin. The destination workspace must also accept the transfer.

More info: https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/transfer-repository-ownership/ 

Option 2: Clone and Push to New Repo 

If you're transferring between two unrelated Bitbucket accounts:

1. Clone the source repo.

2. Create a new repo in the target Bitbucket account.

3. Push to the new repo. This keeps full commit history, branches, and tags, but not issues or PRs.

Hope this helps! ✨
