Hello! I would like to use Bitbucket’s free private repo to host a Hugo site.
I am having tons of difficulty:
connecting the two
adding the theme I would like
I have scoured Stack Overflow and used a bunch of 3rd party tools but nothing is achieving what I want. I have been using the command line to clone repo after repo with zero success.
There’s also a official Hugo tutorial here (although there is a single 3rd party tool that you may not want). But when I Google ‘bitbucket static website hosting’ there are plenty more guides.
I’m not sure how much value we can add here on the Hugo forum to the information that’s already online, especially since the error you posted is a Git issue, not something related to Hugo or BitBucket itself.
Also, for your Git issue there’s also plenty of information online, including this official documentation from BitBucket itself. (See step 5 from that page.)
For the other issue in your post (adding a Hugo theme) you’ll need to provide much more information. Like, for instance, why adding a theme doesn’t work, which kind of errors you get, what you tried, and so on.
Thanks for replying. I think the main issue is: how do I create a Hugo site and add it to a repository? All of the documentation I have found is about creating one repository. I have been trying to create a Hugo site and creating a git repo within that Hugo site root folder. Should I be doing something else?
