The Bitbucket UI is a mess. * It takes over your native browsers find feature. * It's javascript heavy and has multiple panes that scroll, collapse, and expand. * Viewing diffs requires you to click each file that changed (unlike every other diff/code browser I've used where it has one long page with all the changes)

I'm a Bitbucket Product Manager. Thanks for the feedback! This is an area we plan to improve in the Server offering. In particular we're actively looking at ways to make diff nav and find much better.

Are you planning on adding code search feature any time soon (in the cloud, that is)?

It sounds like you're talking about Bitbucket Server. This article is about Bitbucket Cloud. Some people (myself included) much prefer the Cloud product, some people love the server product - and often they have these opinions for the same reason. File-by-file diff is a good example of this :)

Disclosure, I work for Atlassian, but not on either of these products.

I'm using the "enterprise" version, not the public version. Maybe there's a difference. And yeah, that view you posted is a lot easier to read.

Might want to check and see how far behind you are in upgrades. Even though the on-prem version will never have feature parity (new features hit cloud first) it could be that whoever runs your instance hasn't upgraded in a little while.

Feature parity is not really a goal of these products - they are totally separate teams, technologies and languages. If one team develops something awesome then of course the other will try to reimplement, but it's not really the case that features "hit cloud first".

Can confirm. The enterprise (aka Bitbucket Server) version gives you a two pane layout, with files on the left and changes to those files on the right.

Bitbucket Server (formerly Stash) is a completely different codebase from Bitbucket Cloud. They share zero code. One is written in Java, the other in Python. It's a constant source of confusion. The naming is because of a terrible marketing decision. Atlassian marketing does all kinds of weird things, like advertising Bitbucket as only supporting git despite also supporting mercurial.

Almost as bad as Skype vs Skype for Business

If I pay $10 for 1000 additional build minutes will those additional minutes roll over month to month, until they have been used?

Pipelines PM here. The model is a bit different, it's a pay as you go per blocks of 1,000 minutes. So if you normally use an extra 2,800 minutes per month you'll pay $30/month usually, but if for some reasons youd don't use it as much and drop to 1,500 extra minutes the next month you'll pay $20 for that month instead of $30/month every month of the year. For this reason we don't carry over minutes month to month.

I would like to carry minutes over. That would be far better for a solo developer like me, as I may need only 200 minutes a month, but I am stuck paying $120 a year in your model.

Much as I like Bitbucket I think either hosting my own CI and CD infrastructure on a cheap VPS or using gitlab is the way to go.

We use Bitbucket (for over 4 years now) and in general like it mainly for its pricing model. However I have the (generally unfounded) fear that it will become bloated and slow like several other Atlassian products. I have really grown to dislike Jira but I will save that complaint for some other time. The Bitbucket UI has improved over time but my real annoyance is the " Recent Activity " list is not wide enough and…

I can't answer the PM questions, but the Bitbucket blog is hosted externally, not on Bitbucket itself.
