simple solution to backup all of our bitbucket repositories

[Deleted user]

We are no longer in the biz of programming. Our programmer left. Asked our outside resource if we should keep bitbucket since we are not using. He said to backup all the git repositories. A quick search in Bitbucket leads me to believe there is not an easy way to do this.

Anyone in the group have any ideas how I can do this before deleting our account?

You can take a look at these threads for a solution to backup all the repositories using scripts, https://community.atlassian.com/t5/tag/bitbucket-cloud-backup/tg-p?sort=views

Your other option is to manually clone each repository using git clone --mirror <repository URL>

Thanks. The responses are either over my head (not a programmer) or each answer just links to other answers, to other references that are beyond my knowledge. So there isn't a step by step for the non-programmer instructions anywhere? If I contact Atlassian directly can they/will they assist?

The step-by-step instruction for the manual option is really simple, just follow these instructions, Clone a repository, and just add --mirror in step 4. Then repeat for each of your repositories.

You can also from within Bitbucket go in to each of your repositories and download a zip file of your repository.
