Cannot create a new file in Bitbucket

Hello.
I am running a bitbucket server v5.12.0.
I've created some repositories and I'd like to manually create new files.
I've read the Atlassian documentation and I know that once I am in my repo I should have a "create file" option but I don't have it. Do you know why?

PS: I am a bitbucket administrator

Hello,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I believe this is a Cloud vs Server document issue. What document did you read that said that? Bitbucket Cloud has the option to add a file in the UI. Bitbucket Server does not have the same option. I apologize for the misunderstanding here!

I can check maybe tomorrow.

Is there a way to create a new file in bitbucket server?

If not what is the simplest way?

To directly answer your question, no. There isn't a way to commit files in the UI.

Depends on what you mean by simplest. For me the easiest way is to clone the repository to my local machine and run:

touch <file name>
vim <file name>
make edits
git add .
git commit -m "Commit message"
git push

But if you aren't familiar with Git, SourceTree (or some other Git visualizer) might be easier to work with.

Yes, I am familiar.

I just wondered if I could do it through the UI.

Thanks.
