Bitbucket basics

There is going to be a web site for the your Atlassian Bitbucket account, a subdomian off of atlassian.net. There is also a https://bitbucket.org/whatever/ for you. To get at a repository, it's best to download the SourceTree client and then go to the Remote tab (after adding a new project) to see the repositories you may clone. In JIRA if you go to Boards > All Projects > Only My Issues ...you should see your tickets and you should be able to drag one of your tickets to a swimlane to state change it to being started. At the rightside summary there will be a spot for a link for "Create branch" but you may have to scroll down to see it. When you create a branch, set the Repository to the appropriate repository (that setting won't carry over from the ticket) and lead that Branch name with whatever\ to categorize it to the appropriate locale. The branches show up back at SourceTree at the REMOTES at the left navigation for a repository. Double-clicking an item in REMOTES makes it the active branch and puts it in BRANCHES above remotes. Right-clicking an item in BRANCHES that is not the current branch and picking "Merge whatever into current branch" does just what you think it does! When committing you may need to move files from the Unstaged Files pane to the Staged Files pane.
