bitbucket support about cookiecutter-pypackage HOT 2 CLOSED

Hello, Thanks for your issue.

The github_username is a feature from the original cookiecutter, so this questiong might be best answered there. If you look in the repo, the github_username is mostly used to populate text in documentation:

• README.rst
• installation.rst
• CONTRIBUTING.rst

These tend to say that the repo is hosted at Github. References a /issues slug relative to the repo, etc. I'm not sure what these URLs would be on Bitbucket.

The cookiecutter could be made configurable and substitute in the correct URLS depending on platform, but I think that might make the project more complicated than it need be. It might be better to make a bitbucket fork. It might be sensible for this cookiecutter project to better advertise that it is designed to be used for platforms on Github...

Thanks! I think I'm just going to go with GitHub for now because it's been a while since I've done Python and I'm most interested in making sure I'm programming in an isolated environment than that I can have private repos. Your explanation helps, though. I come from the world of Typescript / node.js / npm and there are just some language constructs that I miss having in Python. But in Python there are some isolation / collaboration pieces I'm trying to fill in the gaps for. This scaffold project seems like it addresses many of those.
