BitBucket SSH Cloning Git

Following BitBucket docs: https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/clone-a-repository-223217891.html

This is the example code snippet of cloning using git. But when using the ":" I get an error of "could not resolve hostname" but when I use "/" I don't have any issues. What am I missing? Is the documentation incorrect?


$ git clone ssh://[email protected]:teamsinspace/documentation-tests.git
$ git clone ssh://[email protected]/teamsinspace/documentation-tests.git

Note that every Bitbucket repo has a "Clone" button at the top right of the repo's home page. You can copy the correct git clone command from there.

There are two different syntaxes for git SSH URLs:

ssh://[email protected]/teamsinspace/documentation-tests.git

and

[email protected]:teamsinspace/documentation-tests.git

See https://git-scm.com/docs/git-pull#_git_urls_a_id_urls_a

The Bitbucket docs mixed these two. This is an error in the docs.
