Getting a repository hosted at bitbucket.org using Windows 8

[Roberto García López]

Hi there,

I'm trying to use "go get" to download a remote repository hosted at bitbucket.org in a PC using Windows 8. Here's the command line

go get bitbucket.org/vcrobe/privatetest.git

(The repository is publicly available)

But I get the following error:

package bitbucket.org/vcrobe/privatetest.git: invalid version control suffix in bitbucket.org/ path

Can someone tell me the correct command to download the repository?

Thanks.

Roberto,

C:\>go version
go version go1.3 windows/amd64
C:\>set GOPATH
GOPATH=C:\gopath
C:\>go get -v bitbucket.org/vcrobe/privatetest
bitbucket.org/vcrobe/privatetest (download)
bitbucket.org/vcrobe/publictest (download)
bitbucket.org/vcrobe/publictest
bitbucket.org/vcrobe/privatetest
C:\>

Remove the ".git" ending of the path.

Hi peterGo,

I did it exactly as you suggested

go get -v bitbucket.org/vcrobe/privatetest

And I get this new error:

package bitbucket.org/vcrobe/privatetest: Get https://api.bitbucket.org/1.0/repositories/vcrobe/privatetest: dial tcp: GetAddrInfoW: No such host is known.

I'm behind a firewall. Do I've to configure go to use it? If yes how?

Thanks for your quick response.

Hi again,

I did the same test now with the project hosted at Github.com using the following command line and it worked as expected

go get -v github.com/vcrobe/privatetest

So the proxy is not the problem.

Why I'm getting this error when try it with bitbucket?

package bitbucket.org/vcrobe/privatetest: Get https://api.bitbucket.org/1.0/repositories/vcrobe/privatetest: dial tcp: GetAddrInfoW: No such host is known.

Thanks.

I don't know what I'm talking about, but I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss proxy issues. In order for `go get` to work, it depends on the meta tags delivered to the client to point to the actual repo url. I inspected github webpage in browser but there are no meta tags so it must be doing some work upfront and determining if the GETVAR from `go` is present first to determine what it should do (i could only guess).

It's possible that bitbucket might be redirecting to its api subdomain and doing other stuff that doesn't agree with your proxy.

Do you have control over the firewall?
