I am having issues with cloning repository onto a new work laptop I am setting up.
On the remote tab it sees all the remote repositories available to me on BitBucket.org website for our companies Bit Bucket Workspace as seen in the picture below.
However when I right click on MtrCtrl2024 repository and select Clone... I get this error message:
Command: git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false --no-optional-locks ls-remote https://JimWoodworker@bitbucket.org/kineticupstream/mtrctrl2024.git Output: Error: remote: Invalid credentials fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://bitbucket.org/kineticupstream/mtrctrl2024.git/'
What's up with this? I do not get how my authentication credentials are good enough to see the list of all repositories on our companies Bit Bucket Work Spaces (which I am an administrator of), but it throws an Invalid Credentials message when I try to clone the repository on the new laptop. It has been cloned for some time on the old work laptop.
Hello @JimWoodworker , Welcome to the Atlassian Community!
The use of the Atlassian account password for cloning, and interacting with a local repo over https was deprecated as shown in this Community question.
You can set up an app password and connect over https with that and your Bitbucket username. https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Bitbucket-questions/Authentication-Failed-cant-access-own-bitbucket-repo-due-to-quot/qaq-p/2427770
