How much space can your BitBucket account have?

I created a BitBucket account today, and I love the fact that they allow you to have unlimited public/private repositories. However, I didn't find the size limit of your account? Does anyone know where to find it? Github offered 300mb if I remember correctly.

EDIT #2 (Over three years later, as pointed out by matchew)

As of 30 May 2014 There is now a 1gb (soft 2gb hard) limit. read this for more information

Here is a link to their FAQ which address this question

---

According to the banner on their homepage: Unlimited disk space. I can highly recommend it. ;-)

*** EDIT (ALMOST TWO YEARS LATER) *** I can still highly recommend it ;-) And in the meantime they have addressed this question in their FAQ

Bitbucket's documentation says:

> We don't place any limits on the size of your repositories, file uploads, or the number of public repositories you can have. Not on the paid plan or on the free plan. We do expect that you are polite and respect fair use. If you push your entire MP3 collection that is not polite or respectful to the artists.

^{(Just for the sake of completeness)}

Note that Atlassian changed their policy on May 20th, 2014 for newly-created repositories:

> Soft limit of 1 GB – In-product and email notifications will give you a heads-up that you’re approaching the limit. > > Hard limit of 2 GB – Pushing to the repository will be disabled until you’re back under the limit.

From their Repository size limits blog post.

According to their FAQ:

> We do not enforce any size limits. Unlimited is unlimited. However, we > do ask people to use Bitbucket for software related stuff (Bitbucket > is not intended to be used as a personal backup service for your home > directory or MP3s).

Personally, I would prefer to pay for storage space and be able to story "beyond just source" honestly. I want to use them for not only source code but to include corporate scanned PDFs. They aren't huge but certainly it can be bigger than source code. I have no desire for MP3s audio files but being able to exchange files with my accountant and track progress in issues that are beyond code in something like JIRA is extremely useful.

Bitbucket is a great service though. Check them out.

August 2019: the soft limit (1GB) and hard limit (2GB) are still in place per repository.

But that will soon be for Git repositories only.

Regarding Mercurial specifically (which is one of the tags for this question), the limit will be 0.

BitBucket sunset SVN in 2011, explaining how to migrate to Mercurial.

BitBucket is sunsetting Mercurial today (2019), and they will remove those repositories in June 2020.
Not keep them read-only, not archive them: delete them.
