Import repo from BB user.

I would like to know that if I use the Create Repo > Import function to import a repository hosted on BitBucket by another user will the repository commit history be imported and maintained along with the code?

Thanks!

Hi Matthew, if your repo is already in Bitbucket you don't need to import it, you can just clone it. Cloning a repo will also copy the .git file, which is where all the metadata resides. Keep in mind that other data such as comments and pull requests will not be migrated. For more information you can read Clone a repository.

If there's any reason why you wanted to import it rather than just cloning it, let us know!

Kind regards,

Ana
