Summary
Because of this document here, there is some confusion as to repository limits for Bitbucket Server/Data Center. In addition, some customers may have large repositories and are concerned about the capacity of Bitbucket Server.
Solution
There are not any repository size restrictions in Bitbucket Server/Data Center. There is only the limit of the disk space and how large of files a reverse proxy is configured to handle. However, there are feature requests for adding project/repository size limitations, as listed below:
- BSERV-2663 - Ability to set Quota on Project/Repository level
- BSERV-3444 - Repository size and number of repository per user limits
Also, if you have large files that are handled frequently, leveraging Git LFS will assist with managing those files more efficiently in Git and Bitbucket Server.
Please note: Having large repositories and files will increase git operation times such as clones, fetches, pushes, merges, etc.
