We've added support for Bitbucket Server to support internal networks. Beyond that there are no changes planned for the registration workflow currently.

You are aware that there is a special enterprise installation package is available? https://confluence.atlassian.com/sourcetreekb/sourcetree-enterprise-and-msi-installation-947848769.html

From our point of view this is working great; by default system git, no mandatory Atlassian account, silent installation.

To install:

• Check that the target has at least .NET 4.5
• Make sure you install Git (2.17.1) before Sourcetree
• @msiexec /i "SourcetreeEnterpriseSetup_2.5.5.msi" /qb ACCEPTEULA=1

To create a shortcut on the target, assuming you keep everything default, use:

powershell "$s=(New-Object -COM WScript.Shell).CreateShortcut('C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Sourcetree.lnk');$s.TargetPath='C:\Program Files (x86)\Atlassian\Sourcetree\SourceTree.exe';$s.Save()"

At  this point, SourceTree is pretty dead from an enterprise perspective. Probably the worst v2.x "upgrade" I've seen.

Any update on that issue, or is collecting email adresses from enterprise users, as you force them to create accounts, more important than a better tool acceptance and user experience?

Bit disappointing that this improvement has not been implemented. As a large organisation, we will now have to find another solution to use as our Git Client.

I will try this when I can get my sys admins available to run the installer.  To be clear, that solution reads as bypassing contacting the server entirely by writing the results of contacting the server.  Can you confirm that?  Does Atlassian authorize that for their software's failure to work in a common operating situation?

Try the instructions in https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Sourcetree-questions/How-to-install-SourceTree-through-proxy/qaq-p/642198 - it worked for us.

I don't have access to Google Groups – especially from work.  Like many other enterprise/corporate users, we have need to use this on systems without a network connection.

Git works without a network or internet connection.  Git for Windows works without a network or internet connection.  Sourcetree, when last I was able to use it, was awesome.  It isn't awesome when I can't use it.

Thank you.

Why a google group???
You have all you need inhouse

This is also an ongoing issue for corporations that have restrictive firewalls and/or proxies to access external company resources.
