How to migrate source code to GIThub

[B Vemireddy]

I am new to Github and trying to migrate source code from Bitbucket to GitHub . I am able to successfully login to GIthub and crated a repository. However when i am trying to import (cloned URL from Bitbucket is not working). Throwing error -No source repositories were detected at https://bitbucket.****.git. Please check the URL and try again.  Please advice .

Hi @B Vemireddy 

Jumping in as I've not seen a response from anyone in our community.

The standard URL format for a Bitbucket Cloud repository is as follows:

• https://bitbucket.org/workspaceID/reposlug.git

We no longer allow basic username/password authentication over HTTPS so this might be why you are unable to gain access to it on GitHub, in which case you'll need to create an App Password or a Repository Access Token first with Read permissions and then include this in the URL:

• APP PASSWORD FORMAT: https://USERNAME:APP_PASSWORD@bitbucket.org/workspaceID/reposlug.git
• ACCESS TOKEN FORMAT:
  https://x-token-auth:APP_TOKEN@bitbucket.org/workspaceID/reposlug.git

If this still fails, I'd suggest reaching out to the Github community.

Hope this helps.

Cheers!
