Hello,

just  a very simple question :

What is the betweend repo and projet in Bitbucket ?

In Github, if I'm not wrong a Repo can contain multiple projects but the other way is not possible

So in Bitbucket, is it the same or is it inverted ?

Thank you in advance,

 

Gauthier

Projects in Bitbucket is a way to organize your repositories and apply the same configuration to those repositories, like access, branching strategy, default reviewers etc, instead of having to do that for each repository.

I think there is a small error in the original answer from @Mikael Sandberg. I think the list of configuratino should say instead:

"Projects in Bitbucket is a way to organize your repositories and apply the same configuration to those repositories, like access keys, branching strategy, default reviewers etc, instead of having to do that for each repository."

An Access Key is very different than Access, or Permission to access a repo. We recently had confusion in a meeting that this slight difference caused. I may be wrong though, so feel free to let me know if I missed something.
