Hey - when you say you 'Never head about' in relation to Bitbucket Pipelines, do you mean you'd never heard that Pipelines was a product that was available as part of Bitbucket?

Asking as I took over as the PM for Bitbucket Pipelines around 6 months ago and have been working to make the case for us needing to do a lot more to make people aware of the capability as a lot think Bitbucket is just Git, not CI/CD as well.

First of all, sorry for the spelling mistake (head/heard.)

You are correct, I didn't know about Pipelines. However I don't use Bitbucket myself. I only use it when a customer uses it and this was the first customer of mine that uses Pipelines. I remember that I setup a pipeline for a new project and it was easy to do it.

In general I'm always surprised by the amount of different products that do the same thing and I never heard about. The diversity is good, my ignorance is bad. However there is a limit on the number of things one can use.

Thanks so much for taking the time to reply, little anecdotes like this do a lot to help me make the case for us needing a better brand.

Completely understand where you're coming from re: the number of different tools. Obviously I'd love it if we were one of the one's people thought of when the topic of integrated Git + CI/CD came up, but that's on us to change the level of awareness.
