Atlassian keeps Bitbucket running. When a repository is deleted, you own the recovery. Resilience starts there: Rewind holds an independent copy of every version, ready to export the day you need it.
Repository content and metadata, plus repository variables, webhooks, and access keys.
Branches, commits, and tags, plus the branching models and branch restrictions you configure.
Pull requests, plus the comments, reviewers, and activity log attached to each one.
Pipelines, pipeline configuration, pipeline schedules, deployments, and the known hosts your pipelines trust.
Artifacts produced by your pipeline steps, plus the files stored in Bitbucket Downloads.
Workspace metadata, workspace variables, and workspace webhooks, plus the projects inside them.
Users, groups and group members, user and group permissions, and repository user and group permissions.
Atlassian backs up its platform, not your account data. Every pull request, pipeline, and permission your team depends on is yours to protect. When something is lost, the code is only part of what’s gone.
Auditors need backup evidence, tested procedures, and documented RTO and RPO targets. Holding a copy of your data is one thing; showing you can reconstruct from it is what the audit asks for.
Some incidents delete a single repository. Others compromise an entire workspace. A few rewrite a pipeline quietly, and the change surfaces weeks later. Whichever it is, engineering stops and delivery timelines slip.
AI agents can corrupt repositories or delete data in seconds. A wrong instruction hits code, pull requests, and pipelines faster than any team can catch it. You need a way to undo the damage just as fast.
Resilience is holding your own copy. Every version of every repository stays in your hands, exportable on the day you need it.
No digging through logs. Open the repository in your Rewind Vault and see every backed-up version, going back 365 days by default. Repositories added after setup are there too.
Version Compare shows what changed between two backups, so you pick your recovery point knowing exactly what you are getting. An on-demand backup before a risky change gives you a clean one to compare against.
Click Export this Version. Rewind builds a mirrored clone of the repository as it stood on the day you picked. The clone carries its full Git history, every branch, every tag, and the commits behind them.
Push the clone into Bitbucket with standard Git, using the destination you name. Your code, branches, tags and history land together, and nothing is overwritten without you.
Export this Version hands you one repository as it stood on a chosen day, a mirrored clone with its Git history. Vault Export hands you the whole backup, one directory per resource type.
Rewind runs automated daily backups on your Bitbucket workspace and keeps 365 days of data by default. New repositories are picked up automatically, and you can take a clean snapshot on demand before a risky operation.
Backups are encrypted in transit and at rest with AES-256. Every backup, restore, and export is written to an exportable audit log with 365 days of history. Rewind offers data residency in six regions.
When mistakes happen, export a single repository from any backed-up day in a few clicks. Compare versions first so you know exactly what you are getting, then use standard Git operations to push it back into Bitbucket.
A rogue AI agent, broken integration, or misconfigured automation can wipe repositories across your workspace. Rewind keeps a daily copy outside Atlassian, so you can pull a good version back and keep shipping.
“If you have a major disaster, you need a partner who’s going to get your data back as quickly as possible, especially if something unexpected comes up. Rewind really wants to be a partner in solving these problems.”

“Rewind gave me peace of mind so I don’t have to worry about damage to my systems, whether it’s caused by wrong usage or by AI overreach.”

“Whether it’s restoring data from an accidental deletion or compromise, or just having the peace of mind knowing that Rewind’s there if you need it, is why we recommend Rewind to every client.”
Wes Buckwalter, CEO

“I’ve been through disasters. I’ve seen people just delete things or make a mistake. And I’ve seen viruses go scampering across the network, so I know their destructive capabilities. I’ve seen why a third-party backup is important.”
Paul Jacques, Security & Infrastructure Manager

“We knew Atlassian provides limited data backup coverage, but that doesn’t extend to backup of account-level data in GitHub and Jira.”

“Rewind doesn’t just give us a full backup of the codebase with just a few clicks; it also gives us a business continuity plan in the event of the worst-case scenario.”

“The biggest benefit of working with Rewind is the peace of mind. I know that if I make a mistake, Shopify crashes, or our data is stolen, that Rewind has me covered. I can easily log in and access my data and restore it.”
Thirty-one resource types: repository content, metadata, variables, webhooks, and access keys; branches, commits, tags, branching models, and branch restrictions; pull requests, comments, reviewers, and activity logs; pipelines, configuration, schedules, known hosts, and deployments; pipeline artifacts and Bitbucket Downloads; workspace metadata, variables, webhooks, and projects; users, groups, and permissions. Backups run automatically every day. See the coverage section above.
Atlassian’s security documentation states it does not use its backups to revert customer-initiated destructive changes, such as deleted projects or sites. Rewind adds an independent daily copy stored outside Atlassian, 365 days of version history by default, and a per-version export you can push back into Bitbucket.
You pick the day you want in the Rewind Vault, click Export this Version, and Rewind builds a mirrored clone of that repository with its full Git history. You then push the clone into Bitbucket with standard Git, using the destination you name, and nothing is overwritten without you.
No. Rewind Backups for Bitbucket includes unlimited backup storage, with 365 days of history by default. Your backups are encrypted in transit and at rest, and you choose which of six regions holds them. Cloud Sync can also push a copy into your own AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud storage.
Yes. New repositories added to your workspace after setup are included in daily backups automatically, with no reconfiguration when your team adds one. You can also take an on-demand backup before a risky change rather than waiting for the next daily run. Every repository in the workspace keeps its own version history in the Vault.
