Bitbucket + XCode 4.2 + Git

Question

I've been looking for a solution with Bitbucket and XCode.

As everybody knows, XCode 4.2 comes with git support. I've created a bitbucket account and I wanted to push my changes to my repository,

I've followed this tutorial https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BITBUCKET/Use+the+SSH+protocol+with+Bitbucket

However this is the problem I'm facing. When I'm in the Organizer - Repositories Section at XCode, I go to my remotes folder and create a repository.

ssh://[email protected]/username/myrepo.git

However when I'm asked for Name and password, the ones I provide as username and password fails. I've also tried with git as a user but no luck.

UPDATE:

I've created a ~/.ssh/config file where I've added a specific configuration for bitbucket.

Host bitbucket.org
HostName bitbucket.org
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/bitbucket
User username

I've tested it with ssh -T [email protected] and It works, it gets authenticated.

However, when I test this with XCode I got the following error. "Authentication failed because the name or password was incorrect."

I know I'm missing something here.

UPDATE 2:

I've managed to solve the issue but only from command line, not from XCode. I'll post my solution later but feel free if you have a way to do it from XCode

Thanks

Answer 1

It worked for me by using the HTTPS URI, but I needed to remove my user name from it. For example change:

https://[email protected]/username/myrepo.git

to

https://bitbucket.org/username/myrepo.git

then supply your username and password when prompted.

Answer 2

Removing the username did not work for me. But I was able to solve the issue by adding my password like this to the URL:

https://username:[email protected]/username/myrepo.git

Answer 3

I was able to use the XCode UI by using the https URL and entering my bitbucket username and password when prompted.
