Let's say I have an issue with the type "Task". If I go to edit that issue, the type field changes back to "bug", and I need to manually reset the issue type. Is this the right place to post this or does bitbucket have it's own issue tracker?
This isn't an issue tracker at all, it's community Q&A (much like StackExchange, but focused on Atlassian products). Try https://bitbucket.org/site/master/issues/ or http://jira.atlassian.com
