Effortlessly Migrate Large Git Repositories to the Cloud

Overview

Musewerx helped an IT company overcome the limitations of traditional clone-and-push migration methods to successfully move large Git repositories with complex branch structures to Bitbucket on AWS Cloud.

The Challenge

The client needed to migrate oversized repositories with thousands of branches to the cloud. Their existing server version lacked support, and standard migration tools failed to handle the data volume and branching complexity.

Our Solution

Musewerx employed SSH-based access with Git Bash commands including `git clone --bare` and `git push --mirror` for efficient large repository migration, combined with `git count-objects -H` verification to guarantee complete data integrity throughout the transfer.

Results & Impact

Successful migration of all repository data including large files and branches
Significantly faster migration compared to traditional clone-and-push methods
Verified data integrity via object count comparison pre and post migration
Client fully operational in the cloud with zero data loss
