Improving discoverability of the git blame functionality on Bitbucket Cloud UI

We are making git blame feature more discoverable on the Bitbucket Cloud UI. A very useful feature of git, git blame has been available on the Bitbucket Cloud UI for years. Similar to how git blame works with git, on Bitbucket Cloud it annotates each line in the given file with information from the commit which introduced the line.

Building Bitbucket Cloud for enhanced security, compliance, and scale

With support for Bitbucket Server ending in February 2024, we're seeing more and more of our enterprise customers moving their code to the cloud. To enable a smooth migration to cloud for our Bitbucket Server and Data Center customers and to enable our existing cloud customers to scale, we are continuing to build features around security, compliance, and scale in Bitbucket Cloud.

Project Permissions are now available in Bitbucket Cloud

Today is a big day for Bitbucket Cloud as we begin rolling out project permissions and permission inheritance to align with Bitbucket Server and Data Center. We will be progressively rolling this out over the next month, so you will see the changes in your workspace before the end of April. Project permissions has been a long anticipated update for Bitbucket Cloud and represents one of the largest administration improvements for Bitbucket Cloud since we rolled out Workspaces in April 2020.

Introducing Project and Workspace Access Tokens

A few months ago we introduced Repository Access Tokens which were the first of the new resource-based authentication methods we are introducing to Bitbucket Cloud. Repository Access Tokens enable a convenient, yet secure way to manage access for users to a specific repository. While repository access tokens enable you to allow you to control access at a granular level, they are not scalable.

Access Bitbucket Cloud repositories more securely with resource-scoped access tokens.

We understand there is a constant tension between the need to keep source code secure, while also enabling tools to integrate with your Source Code Management solution. In line with this, Bitbucket Cloud is introducing the first step in a range of new API security capabilities, designed to give customers fine-grained control over access to their Repositories, Projects, and Workspaces.

Announcing Linux Shell Runners in Bitbucket Pipelines

We are happy to announce that Bitbucket Pipelines now supports non-containerized Linux Shell Self-Hosted Runners. We have moved from beta to an official release. You can now create a self-hosted runner and run it on your Linux infrastructure without container restrictions. Since it is your infrastructure, you will not be charged for the build minutes used by your self-hosted runner.
