git - BitBucket - download source as ZIP

Question

I know I can get the project through git clone command, but is there any way, how to download the project through the web interface from BitBucket.org? In the best way, I am looking for a way to download a project source as ZIP compress file.

Answer 1

For the latest version of Bitbucket (2016+), the download link can be found in the Download menu item.

Pre-2016

First method

In the Overview page of the repo, there is a link to download the project.

Second method

Go to Downloads -> Branches -> Download the branch that you want (as .zip, .gz or .bz2). There you'll find download links for all tags. The links will be in the format:

https://bitbucket.org/owner/repository/get/v0.1.2.tar.gz

By tweaking it a little bit, you can also have access to any revision by changing the tag to the commit hash:
