How do I download all of my bitbucket data

[sethrh]

I've just learned that Atlassian deleted or removed content from my account (snippets, not sure what else) sometime earlier this year. I want an archive of everything I have or had on bitbucket so I can migrate to another service.

Ideally, I want a zip file of everything, similar to what I would get on "Google Takeout". 

How do I do this?

Hi @sethrh 

Welcome to community…

Currently, there is no built-in process for customers to back up BitBucket.

A recommended practice for locally backing up remote repositories is utilizing a mirror clone. This Git command will copy all your repository references to your local machine. To execute this, run the following command:

git clone --mirror <repoURL>

• The --mirror flag clones all branches and commits of the specified repository.

• Please note that metadata such as settings, comments, and pull requests are not a part of this backup.

Additionally, there are paid third-party services available that can assist with data backups, such as Rewind Backups for Bitbucket.

I hope this information is helpful. Let me know if you have any further questions.
