How to use Bitbucket as a maven remote repository?

Question

We are planning to use bitbucket as source code repository as well remote repository for our maven based projects. I have created a repository on bitbucket something like below:

Answer 1

I've now managed to get this working. I followed these instructions and I can deploy artifacts to bitbucket and then use those in another maven project.

The tweaks I had to make to get it working were:

1. Upgrade Wagon-Git to v0.2.0
2. Configure Git using git config --global user.email as it didn't seem to be picking up the --local setting I had used previously

I also manually added a README.md to the repo but I don't think this was actually required.

Once you have successfully deployed to the repo you should see all your files in the usual way via the BitBucket web front end.
