Stash

Before you begin

• Ensure that you are using a compatible version of Stash: Stash 2.11 or later is required.

• Configure an application link: If you have not previously configured an application link between your Bamboo and Stash servers, you will need to do so before you can add a linked repository. 

  See Linking to another application for more information. 

  We recommend that you use OAuth for authentication for your link. If you have an existing link that uses a different authentication type, you can also configure OAuth authentication for the link.

• Stash must have SSH access enabled: When you link to a Stash repository, Bamboo generates an SSH key pair that it shares with Stash. See Enabling SSH access to Git repositories in Stash. If you want to view the public SSH key in Stash, see SSH access keys for system use.

Linking to a Stash repository using the Administration menu

To link a new Stash repository using the Administration menu:

1. Click the  icon and select Overview.
2. Select Linked repositories (under Build Resources) to open the Linked source repositories window
3. Click Add repository and select Stash from the Repository host menu.

4. Complete the required information:

   Display name	A name that identifies this repository within Bamboo
   Stash server	This menu will show all Stash servers that have been linked to Bamboo via an application link
   Repository	The repository that will be built. This menu will show all repositories on the Stash server that you have permissions to access.
   Branch	Pick a branch if you want to check out code from a branch other than the default branch.

   
   Advanced options

   Use shallow clones	Allows Bamboo to perform shallow clones (i.e. history truncated to a specified number of revisions). This should increase the speed of the initial code checkouts, however if your build depends on the full repository history, we recommend that you do not use this option. Shallow clones are enabled by default.
   Enable repository caching on remote agents	Allow caching of repositories on remote agents to save bandwidth. Note that caches are always full clones of the source repository.
   Use submodules	Select to enable submodules support if these are defined for the repository. If native Git capability is not defined for agent submodules support will be disabled.
   Command timeout	This is useful to stop hung Bitbucket processes. On slower networks, you may consider increasing the default timeout to allow Bamboo time to make an initial clone of the Git repository.
   Verbose logs	Turns on more verbose logs from Git commands. Use this option if you encounter problems with Git in Bamboo.
   Fetch whole repository	Fetches whole repository instead of only one selected branch.
   Enable Quiet Period	Specifies a delay after a single commit is detected before the build is started. This allows multiple commits to be aggregated into a single build.
   Include/Exclude Files	Allows you to specify the files that Bamboo should, or should not, use to detect changes. When you configure the Include option, it means that you want Bamboo to use only the mentioned files for change detection because by default Bamboo checks all the files. The same way,  if you configure the Exclude option, Bamboo will not consider the excluded files for detecting changes. Enter into File Pattern a regular expression to match the files that Bamboo  includes or excludes. The regex pattern must match the file path in the repository. See sub page for examples.
   Exclude changesets	Enter a regular expression to match the commit messages for changesets that should not start a build.
   Web Repository	If your repository can be viewed in a web browser, select the repository type. This allows links to relevant files to be displayed in the 'Code Changes' section of a build result.
   	Stash – specify the following details for the repository: Stash URL – the URL of your Stash instance (e.g. ' https://stash.mycompany.com '). Stash Project Key – the key of the project in Stash (e.g. 'CONF'). Repository Name – the name of the repository in Stash (e.g. 'conf-dev').   See Integrating Bamboo with Stash for more information.
