Cannot push to Git repository on Bitbucket

Question

I created a new repository and I\'m running into a strange error. I\'ve used Git before on Bitbucket but I just reformatted and now I can\'t seem to get Git to work. After

Answer 1

I had this issue and I thought I was crazy. I have been using SSH for 20 years. and git over SSH since 2012... but why couldn't I fetch my bitbucket repository on my home computer?

well, I have two bitbucket accounts and had 4 SSH keys loaded inside my agent. even if my .ssh/config was configured to use the right key. when ssh was initializing the connection, it was using them in order loaded into the agent. so I was getting logged into my personal bitbucket account.

then getting a Forbidden error trying to fetch the repo. makes sense.

I unloaded the key from the agent

ssh-add -d ~/.ssh/personal_rsa

then I could fetch the repos.

... Later I found out I can force it to use the specified identity only

 Host bitbucket.org-user2
     HostName bitbucket.org
     User git
     IdentityFile ~/.ssh/user2
     IdentitiesOnly yes

I didn't know about that last option IdentitiesOnly

from the bitbucket documentation itself

Answer 2

Just try

git remote add origin <HTTP URL>

Answer 3

Reformatted means you probably deleted your public and private ssh keys (in ~/.ssh).

You need to regenerate them and publish your public ssh key on your BitBucket profile, as documented in "Use the SSH protocol with Bitbucket", following "Set up SSH for Git with GitBash".

Accounts->Manage Accounts->SSH Keys:

Then:

Answer 4

Get the ssh done as in the Atlassian tutorial and make sure the private key is being pasted in the profile, not in the repository :)

Answer 5

I solved this by removing the remote using command:

git remote remove origin

and then tried to add remote using https url instead of ssh

git remote add origin httpsUrl

It asks for github credentials. Enter credentials and then try pushing to git using:

git push origin master

Answer 6

Just need config file under ~/.ssh directory
ref : https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/set-up-ssh-for-git-728138079.html
add bellow configuration in config file

Host bitbucket.org
 IdentityFile ~/.ssh/<privatekeyfile>
