As a consultant I might have to deal with different Git repositories, BeanStalk, BitBucket, etc. I was wondering how do I configure Tortoisegit to work with a setup like this?

No matter how is hosted the git repository, all you need is its URL (git://github.com/user/project.git or https://bitbucket.org/user/project.git, for example). This is what you give to TortoiseGit on cloning configuration.
For authentication, see for example GitHub docs for SSH setup with TortoiseGit, but you shoud use HTTPS authentication which is simpler.

How do I handle the authentication portion?

I just wanted to say that the link you have provided for GitHub docs has 4 bullet points, with neither leading to a detailed description on setting up the authentication portion with tortoisegit.

@Killrawr the page has been vandalized since; hold on for a permalink

@Killrawr sorry about your question, was busy at understanding how to restore github pages. The link is correct now.

If all Bitbucket needs is a url, how do you prevent someone else from accessing that Bitbucket repository? (or is there some authentication between the two that I'm missing)?
