Atlassian is not Oracle. I had fears for BitBucket when they bought it, but they seem to have left it alone for the most part.

Sourcetree, on the other hand, got fucked up. How much of that was a strategic decision and how much just plain incompetence (either by Atlassian or the original team), I don't really know.

Bitbucket has been a bit Atlassified a bit.. Hipchat plugins are at the root of the system and it's just a question of time before they require hip-chat to be there for some functionality to work. Don't believe me?

An example of this was the integration of HipChat in confluence. Product was fine but now requires HipChat X amount of plugins to be installed (to be able to insert Emojicon's in Confluence, using confluence own menu's).
