Making a Bitbucket Repository Private

September 22, 2016 by . Filed under howto, public.

Students in my classes submit their work using a private Bitbucket repository. Usually the repository is made private during the forking process, but sometimes folks miss this step. Following are the steps to make a repository private after it has been forked.

  1. Visit your repository’s page on Bitbucket’s website.
  2. Go to Settings / Repository details.
  3. Check This is a private repository.
  4. Go to Settings / Access Management.
  5. Add user twodee with with Admin privileges.

Though the repository is private, I still need access in order to grade.
