Summary
The Bitbucket Data Center repositories are located in BITBUCKET_HOME/shared/data/repositories/<repository-id> but which ID corresponds to which repository?
Cause
Repositories are stored in Bitbucket Data Center's file system using a unique ID number instead of their name.
Resolution
The System Administrator permission is required to see the location on disk of the repository.
To determine the storage location of a repository, navigate to the repository in Bitbucket Data Center and select Settings. The location on disk will be displayed under Repository details. The numerical part of the path is the ID of the repository.
If you have access to the database.
Bulk Repository ID
If you have a few repositories, run a query on the Bitbucket Data Center database for the ID numbers similar to :
SELECT name, id FROM <DataBase>.repository; This query will list all repositories and corresponding ID's. If you have a lot of repositories or need more details you need to identify the repository you can run:
SELECT r.NAME,
r.id,
r.slug,
p.project_key
FROM repository r
JOIN project p
ON r.project_id = p.id
WHERE r.id = <Pathid>;This query will list all repositories, their project keys, and corresponding ID's.
If you only have access to the repository on the file system, the ID is in the path. The repository name and project is included in the repository-config file found in the root of the repository. Here is an example:
#>***********************************************
# THIS FILE IS MAINTAINED BY ATLASSIAN BITBUCKET
# IT CONTAINS NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS.
#>***********************************************
[bitbucket]
