What is the best way to have a shared local repo on our production server?

David Benjamin_pa2mok

Hi,

We are hosting our site on a local server and want to be able to have multiple, different, users able to log into the server and pull the master repo, hosted at Bitbucket, whenever there is an update. What would be the best way to go about doing this?

Thanks for any help or suggestions you can offer.

Hi, @David Benjamin, welcome to the community! 

In order to have multiple users working on a repository hosted in Bitbucket Cloud, you just need to add them to this repository. After that, they will be able to clone this repo to their local machines, work on it locally, and then push their changes to the remote repository. 

In order to add a user to a repository, you can follow one of these two options:

• Add users directly to the repository you want them to have access to:

  • Open your repository in Bitbucket Cloud > go to Repository settings > User and group access

  • Select Add members

  • Add the email address of the users you would like to add to this repo and select which type of access you want to grant to this group 

  • They will receive an invitation to join this repository  

• Create a group and add the users to this group: 

  • Access your workspace in Bitbucket > go to Settings

  • Open User groups > Create group

  • Fill in the required fields and click on Confirm

  • Open the group > go to Add member 

  • Inform the email address of the users you would like to add to this group

  • Open your repository > Repository settings > User and group access

  • Select Add members > add the group you have created and select which type of access you want to grant to this group 

Besides that, we have a great Git tutorial, in case you would like to read more about that:

• Learn Git with Bitbucket Cloud

I hope this helps, but do let me know if you have any questions. 

Kind regards,
