    Sorry you have to deal with this. You can stay on Bitbucket. Here is what to change before November 12, 2026:

1. Find SSH remotes. Run git remote -v in each repo. Look for git@bitbucket.org.
2. Switch each remote. Run git remote set-url origin git@ssh.bitbucket.org:<workspace>/<repo>.git and trust the new host key.
3. Update CI and firewalls. Change SSH URLs in CI, deploy keys and scripts. Allow ssh.bitbucket.org on port 22.

    Bitbucket Cloud Git over SSH (bitbucket.org): a change is due by November 12. You can stay on Bitbucket. If you would rather leave, here is how to move to Your product.

    What changes at Bitbucket

    Bitbucket Cloud moves Git over SSH to a new host name, ssh.bitbucket.org. After November 12, 2026, SSH to bitbucket.org is refused. HTTPS is not affected.

    • New SSH host: ssh.bitbucket.org (Atlassian)
    • HTTPS access: Not affected; bitbucket.org serves only HTTPS (web and API) (Atlassian)
    • Command to switch a repo: git remote set-url origin git@ssh.bitbucket.org:<workspace>/<repo>.git (Atlassian)
    • Firewalls: Allow ssh.bitbucket.org on port 22 (Atlassian)
    • Posted by the Atlassian team: May 12, 2026 (Atlassian)
    • Repos and CI jobs that use SSH to bitbucket.org: Fail after November 12, 2026 unless updated (Atlassian)
