Sourcetree Windows fails to clone a private Hg hosted on Bitbucket

tcuvelier

Dear all,

I am currently using Sourcetree 3.0.6-beta-2193 (the latest, it seems) on Windows 10 1709, with both embedded Git (2.18.0/LibGit2Sharp 0.24.0 + git-lfs v2.4.2) and Hg (4.6.2). I work behind a nasty proxy, which blocks many many things (including SSH) --- well, at least, it does not require authentication. I configured Sourcetree to use OAuth authentication for both Bitbucket and GitHub, and to use HTTPS as the preferred protocol.

When I try to clone a private repository, I get a handful of errors if the repository is a Mercurial one hosted on Bitbucket. In Sourcetree, I click on the + to open a new tab, then Remote, I select one of my repos (Sourcetree can easily retrieve the complete list), Clone. Then, Sourcetree fails to identify the type of repository, with these errors:

Command: perl.exe C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Local\SourceTreebeta\app-3.0.6-beta-2193\tools\svn.pl info https://tcuvelier@bitbucket.org/tcuvelier/YYY

I do not have the same troubles with Git, be it on Bitbucket or GitHub: everything works fine.

Of course, I already configured the proxy in both Git and Mercurial (taking the same parameters as the ones used by my browser):

git config --global http.proxy http://nasty.proxy:8080

In my %USERPROFILE%\mercurial.ini:

[http_proxy]
host=nasty.proxy:8080

This proxy is also configured in Sourcetree (Tools > Options > Network), using a custom proxy. I checked "Add proxy server configuration to Git / Mercurial".

I feel a bit lost in all of this... Is there anything missing in my configuration? Or is it just that the proxy is blocking specifically Bitbucket? (I have access to the website through the proxy, if that helps.)

Thanks in advance!

Hi

It looks like an issue in the mercurial credential manager extension Sourcetree uses to share credentials between Sourcetree and Hg.

Can I ask what version of Mercurial you are using and if it is not sensitive, or can be sensibly made anonymous, what does the URL you are cloning look like?

tcuvelier

Thank you for your answer! (I already tried to look at the code myself, but albeit it is just Python I did not really understand what was going on there…)

I am using Mercurial 4.6.2 (downloaded by Sourcetree, not my own) and I am trying to clone URLs like https://tcuvelier@bitbucket.org/tcuvelier/moocs/ (as provided by Bitbucket when clicking on the Clone button).

minnsey

Can you try upgrading your Mercurial. Installing as a standalone instance and then setting Sourcetree to use it as a System Install in Tools/Options/Hg tab?

tcuvelier

I get the same kind of error (4.8 x64, coming straight from the official website):

Command: hg identify extensions.hgext.hgsubversion=! https://tcuvelier@bitbucket.org/tcuvelier/moocs
Output:

Hi @Wayne Woods and @Moshe Freund, not sure if you've work around this. But it's all working for me now using SSH instead of using HTTPS in my Accounts. I'm guessing that's because SSH doesn't use the credential manager that the error is complaining about.

Was banging my head all day yesterday as this started happening on both my Windows and Mac machines and I had some changes from the Windows machine I needed to push and pull on my Mac. Hope you guys sort out the issues from your end as well.

tcuvelier

When you have the chance to have SSH going through your proxy, it may be a solution, but that is definitely not my case .

To you all: maybe voting for https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/SRCTREEWIN-10824 might help Atlassian prioritise this bug…

Wayne Woods

Trying to switch to ssh, it tells me that ssh isn't a recognized command by remote.

Duncan McIntyre

Hi @Wayne Woods I followed this documentation to add the ssh keys to our bitbucket settings https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/set-up-an-ssh-key-728138079.html

minnsey

Please upgrade to 3.0.12. The issues is with the removal of TLS 1/1.1 from Bitbucket.

3.0.12 includes updates authentication components that support TLS 1.2

https://product-downloads.atlassian.com/software/sourcetree/windows/ga/SourceTreeSetup-3.0.12.exe

tcuvelier

Thanks for your answer. I could not test your solution yet, but I'm not sure the issue is linked with old TLS versions: it happened well before December 1st. I'll still give it a shot ASAP.

Martin_vm0epb

I solved it like that:

In Sourcetree -> Settings -> In the tab "Remotes" -> Select your path -> Click Edit -> In the field URL / Path, add ( : ) + you password like that:

https://user:password@bitbucket.org/project1

Wayne Woods

The update fixed it for me. Thanks Michael!

tcuvelier

The update doesn't solve the problem for me (3.0.13). I tried to update the embedded Hg, but it brought no solution.

Hi, I'm getting a similar problem of no hg remote features in Sourcetree working. I tried all of the solutions suggested with no luck. I think this is definitely related to the Bitbucket TLS transition because the last time we interacted with remote was in mid-November, before Bitbucket transitioned to exclusive TLS 1.2 support. This is a problem across 4 different computers of which I've went through the following process on 2 different computers.

1) Installed latest Sourcetree version - 3.0.12

2) Installed latest embedded hg version - 4.6.2

3) Installed standalone hg (4.8.1) and used it inside of Sourcetree (3.0.12)

4) Temporarily changed repo to public to test if credentials were causing this error

5) Tested hg inside TortoiseHG with success - I pulled, pushed and cloned

Any support would be appreciated because I prefer to use Sourcetree instead of terminal of Tortoise. Thanks.

minnsey

Can I check you are using HTTPS style remote urls for the repo, not SSH ?

Also does your url contain a username?

To be clear, I can't as yet reproduce your problem.

pemerick07

Michael,

Clone URLs we use are in this format: https://[username]@bitbucket.org/[organization]/[repo]

Problem was gone in Sourcetree version 3.0.12 when we returned from our Holiday break on Jan 2nd.

minnsey

Thanks for the update, glad everything is working.
