In this episode I’m talking to Stefan Saasen from Atlassian. We focus mainly on Stash, which is their on-premise Git repository manager, but we’ll also touch on their other products to see how they all work together.

He’s responsible for migrating the Confluence team from Subversion to Git, as well as a large number of Atlassian OnDemand customers.
