Bitbucket is a Git-based source code repository hosting service provided by Atlassian. Bitbucket offers both commercial plans and free accounts with an unlimited number of private repositories.

Please see ‘Import Repo to Bitbucket Cloud: Seamless Migration to GitLab‘, and how to fix importing the project failed: Project namespace path can contain only letters, digits, etc.

When the Repository is created, the Bitbucket will be empty without any code etc in it. The Bitbucket repository will be the central repository for your files that means that others can access the repository when you assign them the necessary permission.
