Use own username/password with git and bitbucket

Question

I\'m in a team of three; two are working locally, and I am working on the server.

My coworker set up the account, but gave me full privileges to the repository.

Answer 1

Well, it's part of BitBucket philosophy and workflow:

• Repository may have only one user: owner
• For ordinary accounts (end-user's) collaboration expect "fork-pull request" workflow

i.e you can't (in usual case) commit into foreign repo under own credentials.

You have two possible solutions:

1. "Classic" BB-way: fork repo (get owned by you repository), make changes, send pull request to origin repo
2. Create "Team", add user-accounts as members of team, make Team owner of repository - it this case for this "Shared central" repository every team memeber can push under own credentials - inspect thg repository and TortoiseHg Team, owner of this repository, as samples
