Bitbucket PM here, sorry to hear this doesn't suit you. Could you tell me more? If like to better understand your concern.

Sure! We don't have any NFS infrastructure, so migrating to BitBucket means paying for the license + some kind of SAN + engineers to look after it.

We'd much prefer to use EFS but I understand that it's not supported, since there's no way to set `lookupcache=positive` (git push might update the ref to an object which may not be immediately available across all NFS clients & they would cache that the object doesn't exist unless this is set)[0]

The real clincher is that if we can set up HA NFS, then we might as well migrate our existing git solution to it and save ourselves the license cost…
I think they just announced that AWS is a first class supported platform (I'm here at their conference) so it might be worth looking again. Of course that might be Data Center products only so don't quote me on it. I'm sure someone from Atlassian is around here and can confirm.
