Overall Satisfaction with Bitbucket

It is an excellent code manager based on Git. Bitbucket has become my favorite when creating new repositories of code.
  • Pretty good code security options. The security settings for the permissions to write in the repositories is very, very good.
  • It's the best way to resolve merge conflicts in the code. Graphically it is very easy to solve these problems in our code.
  • The way to perform the pull request is very simple for your development coordinator to review and approve your code.
  • You can have your control of code versions very elegantly, with a fairly comfortable interface to work.
  • You can only have two repositories for free, to get more you must have a payment account.
  • Is a bit heavy when loading the page to be able to review the repositories.
  • It does not have an intuitive interface for the user and it costs a bit to adapt to its interface.
  • You can write high quality code since you can review your code before approving that pull request and follow the golden rules of programming.
  • You can integrate with several technologies to have more control, like Trello, so you can keep a diary of the tasks to solve or the bugs that are affecting your application.
  • At least in my case I found that I have become a much better programmer since I have followed the good practices set up. Because with their system of approving the code by the development coordinators or manager, they have set these rules to only be able to upload quality code to our branches.
  • You can see a very good trace of the branches and the comments made by the authors.
I like the way it manages the repositories and the branches. Besides, the graphic part of the resolution of merge conflicts is much easier to edit from the Bitbucket interface than from the console.
When you have multiple repositories and you want a good security, the best thing is to use Bitbucket. You have very attentive support and the repository has no weight limit. You can work with the language of your preference and work with Git or with Mercurial. It is one of the best options when you have several important projects to develop. The option of using Bitbucket is always on the table.
