There are a few new features over the last 5 years... * Merge checks * Build status (finally...) * Audit logs * Inline editing From: https://bitbucket.org/whats-new https://bitbucket.org/whats-new Nothing that keeps it above Github, but they always seem to maintain feature parity. /not a bitbucket shill //just don't like inaccurate comments.

It's okay. It's just that I tried to use it a few months ago and saw they still don't even have syntax highlighting for diffs. It's pretty depressing and it makes it look like they have abandoned the service.

  I've been using BitBucket for years and the lack of syntax highlighting for diffs has never even occurred to me. Why would you want to use such a limited diff tool at all? Personally, I use the best diff tool that I can find and so far that's BeyondCompare from Scooter Software.
  - marcinkuzminski 10y ago
    it becomes more important when you use this for code-review. Then reach diffs makes more sense. Once you start using them you don't want to go back :)
    - WayneBro 10y ago
      I do use diffs for code review. I simply use a much, much better native tool instead of a crappy web tool.
      - marcinkuzminski 10y ago
        we need to make the web ones get the same experience level then. It's great to have it all there. Were you leave your inline notes, there's a live communication part, all feedback from automated code checkers etc.

        I'm sure guys who have paid for the enterprise version of BitBucket would rather not have to pay $60 for every developer for BeyondCompare on top of what they pay for BitBucket

        You can use BeyondCompare. I just use vimdiff.
        WayneBro 10y ago
        Yes, nobody would rather pay for anything though - so what kind of argument is that really? It's like saying "Who would pay extra for higher quality tools?" - the answer is: Lots of people would. Personally, I pay for the best tools because they're worth the money. For that tool in particular, I paid $60 over 3 or 4 years ago. It's practically nothing compared to some of the other tools that we use.

    I'm with you. I use Araxis Merge. Stupid expensive, but considering I diff dozens of times a day ... worth every penny.

  It looks like they have added it now. I wonder if they were slow on updating their site because of Sourcetree, which I personally love (especially since it is a cross-platoform [Mac/Win] GUI client).
  - akjainaj 10y ago
    No they haven't... I just checked. No syntax highlighting for diffs.
    - disposition2 10y ago
      Hmm, they show up for me [1]. That screenshot is an HTML file but I also looked at JS, Python and Markdown and all were showing syntax highlight in diff commits. 1. https://i.imgur.com/Av70r03.png https://i.imgur.com/Av70r03.png

        You can't claim that Bitbucket has syntax highlighting and then post proof that isn't actually proof. Well you can, but why bother? I just checked our Bitbucket. There's no syntax highlighting for any of our used languages for diffs. There is no option to enable or disable it. When you do a search for it, it's still an open issue in BitBucket's public issue tracker[0]. If you've got some wizardry working that isn't an external script, hook it up.

        this isn't syntax highlighting, it's highlighting the diff add/removes. https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/b0b9b3df27d100a975b4e8818f35382b64a5e35c#diff-983ac52fa16631c1e1dfa28fc593d2efL3068 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/b0b9b3df27d100a975b... syntax highlighting would be like this, where keywords, function calls, and variables are all different colors.

Also Pipelines which is like Travis CI built into Bitbucket.

We're coming up on 6 years now and they still haven't released code search: https://bitbucket.org/site/master/issues/2874/ability-to-search-source-code-bb-39 https://bitbucket.org/site/master/issues/2874/ability-to-sea... That's incredible.
