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://[e-mail]/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 [e-mail]
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://[e-mail]/username/myrepo.git

to

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

then supply your username and password when prompted.
