hi there,
i am unable to clone the bitbucket link in vs code ,tried every possible way.i am using vscode extension 1.66.2.
G'day Shweta!
Thank you for contacting Bitbucket Cloud Support.
The most common issue customers are experiencing related to authentication is due to the deprecation of GIT username/password in favour of App Passwords on 01/03/2022:https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Bitbucket-articles/Announcement-Bitbucket-Cloud-account-password-usage-for-Git-over/ba-p/1948231
You will need to make use of an AppPassword for communicating to GIT via HTTPS.We have documentation for usage of app passwords at the following link:https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/app-passwords/#Create-an-app-passwordEssentially, when connecting via HTTPS you will use your AppPassword alongside your username seperated with a ":" character.
Therefore if you are authenticating to GIT over HTTPS to push/pull you will need to update your remote URL's to include the AppPassword:
git remote set-url origin https://USERNAME:APP_PASSWORD@bitbucket.org/username/reposlug.git
The same applies when performing git clone:
git clone https://USERNAME:APP_PASSWORD@bitbucket.org/username/reposlug.git
Hope this helps.
Cheers!
