How to clone a old commit in Bitbucket

[Mohan Ramanathan]

I am trying to checkout a older commit in Bitbucket, Tried the solutions given in this thread https://stackoverflow.com/questions/14528344/how-to-access-full-source-of-old-commit-in-bitbucket 

Nothing worked for me, I think Bitbucket got updated a lot. I am able to clone only the newer commit.

Please guide me how to download the older version of the project in Bitbucket.

I assume you are trying to "download" a snapshot of your repo at a given commit, rather than trying to clone?  The "git clone" command brings down all commits and after cloning you would simply type "git checkout <commit-id>" within the cloned repo to jump around to see different snapshots of the repo from different moments.

If you are trying to "download" a specific snapshot as I suspect, the StackOverflow answer you linked to is still correct. Try this (but fill in "[user]", "[repo]", and "[commit-id]" with the specific values that pertain to your situation):

https://bitbucket.org/[user]/[repo]/get/[commit-id].zip

For example, for the stash-auto-unapprove-plugin repo, this downloads all source code as of commit e7843d047:

https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/stash-auto-unapprove-plugin/get/e7843d047495daeeb5752e6c4a767eb54c4c281d.zip

Thank you, It worked. I just did "git clone" of the project and then made "git checkout COMMIT-ID" replaced the COMMIT-ID with the commit id in my repo.
