Using the Bitbucket Locker
What is Bitbucket and how do I use it?
There is far more space available in temporary storage on your local workstation than in the bitbucket locker, so you may wish to use that for short-term storage of large files, such as data sets. For more information, see [how to use temporary storage on your local workstation].
You are strongly encouraged to use the temporary storage on workstations for storing files, however please note that since the Athena root password is available to every Athena user, you should also avoid storing confidential or sensitive information there.
If you need additional storage for private data, you can contact the IS&T Service Desk (servicedesk@mit.edu or 617-253-1101) to obtain a quota increase.
