  curl -X DELETE -u "${username}" "${API}"
}

Hi,

curl -X POST -u "${username}" "${API}" -d "${DATA}" this is run without any errors.

But when I set my remote origin and try to push -u it shows as remote repo doesnt exist.

curl --user username https://api.bitbucket.org/1.0/repositories/ --data name="test" --data is_private='true'
git remote add origin https://bitbucket.****.com/username/subha.git
git push -u origin --all

C:\Users**********t>git push -u origin --all
fatal: repository 'https://bitbucket.*****.com/username/test.git/' not found
git push -u origin --tags

I am expecting that curl will create a remote repo so it helps me to avoid a step to go into bitbucket GUI and create it manually for everytime When I need to create a new one and push a new repo from my local.

But its not behaving so.

Do you know why?
