Bitbucket old ssh URL doesnt change after renaming the repository

Shashank Agrawal_4ev3ql

Hi,

 

I have a repository called "abc". I could clone it with URL ssh://git@localhost:7999/jd/abc.git

 

Now i have changed the repository name "abc" to "xyz"

I can clone it with ssh://git@localhost:7999/jd/xyz.git

However, am also able to clone, push with the old URL ssh://git@localhost:7999/jd/abc.git

 

I do not want the developers to work on old URL. Any help

Hi Shashank,

I believe this is working as expected, once you rename a repository the original URL is kept as an alias.

I also think that if you want to invalidate the old URL you just need to create a new repository with the same name as the original one ("abc" in your case). This should delete the alias. Once done, delete the newly created repo again.

Cheers,
