  4. Why do I need to clone/setup my git repos under OP

Why do I need to clone/setup my git repos under OP

Added by Deleted user over 6 years ago

This is probably a very n00obish question. I have all my git repos hosted on BitBucket.org. But in order to use self hosted OP

  • Why do I need to clone my git repos under OP's install directory? By doing this am I hosting my git repo under OP?
  • What will the git remote -v or git remote url point to in my local development environment? will it point to git repo in OP's or will it still point to BitBucket url
  • Is there any BitBucket integration? specially with OP's Bug tracking and BitBucket's Issue tracker

Thanks

if the URL is publically accessible with HTTPS or git protocol, you should be able to simply register that repository URL under Project settings > Repository.

The repository has to be cloned since that's the way OpenProject (since Redmine, actually) indexes the commits and loads and submits files for diffing / downloading etc. 

There is no official integration with BitBucket.

Best,

Thanks Oliver,

So it seems that private repos (not on publically accessible url) cannot be used in OP unless the URL includes username:password which makes it more insecure compared to an external stored token.
