I just spent an hour cajoling Xcode 9.2 into using a new Bitbucket git repo as a new remote. I had trouble adding a new remote using the Bitbucket SSH URL since Xcode assumed my user name is "git" and did not allow me to edit it. Here are some tips in hopes it saves you some time and aggravation. This assumes you are already using Xcode's source control and have made commits locally on your Mac. Make sure your commits are up to date before going through this procedure.

  1. Create a new empty git repo on Bitbucket. Do not create a readme at this point, as this would make your new repo not... empty.

  2. Use the HTTPS address to access your Bitbucket repo from Xcode. Problem is, for an empty repo, Bitbucket does not make it easy to figure out what this address is. For me, it was the same URL Bitbucket shows for SSH access but replacing "[email protected]:" with "https://[email protected]/", with [email protected] (hopefully obviously) YOUR username.

  3. In Xcode, open the Source Control Navigator. This is the second icon from the left in Xcode's left panel next to the folder icon, it looks like a square with an x and a circle in the middle. Right click "Remotes" and select "Add Existing Remote...". Under "Remote Name" enter "origin" or "Bitbucket" or whatever floats your boat and under location enter the https:// URL from step 2.

  4. Now, hooray, in Xcode you can do Source Control->Push successfully.

Thank goodness Apple does all my thinking for me, it saves me from hurting my little brain. Now my only brain trauma is from banging my head against the wall dealing with this kind of nonsense.

I had exactly the same problem as You had. To solve it I created a project with a git version control within Xcode 9 and then someone asked me to share it. To do it I created an empty repo on bitbucket, copied its address and then went in terminal to my project's directory. 

cd ~/repos/<repo_name>

Once there you just have to write

git push --mirror *copiedRepoAddress

Make sure that the repository you created at bitbucket is EMPTY and that you have commited all changes on your local repo.

You can actually add real Github* account to your Xcode under Xcode/Preferences/Accounts.

This will actually do authentication when you checkout Bitbucket project after that. I guess that they joined user databases.

  1. If the project folder is already on your computer, and is already under git control, skip this first step. Otherwise, use the command line, or Xcode's Source Control > Clone dialog, to clone your bitbucket repo onto your computer.

  2. Open the project in Xcode and work with it.

  3. There is no step 3! Xcode will see that this repo is under git control and you'll be able to use Xcode's built-in source control features as usual.
