BitBucket is source code hosting platform. You must know git or hg to be able to push or send your code over to BitBucket.
In essence, BitBucket acts as a remote origin for your local git/hg repository. It’s a lot more powerful than just dumping your code. For example, other people can fork your repository by just clicking a button. They can view the entire commit history and all your branches.
