Had the same error while using SourceTree connected to BitBucket repository.

When navigating to repository url on bitbucket.org the warning message appeared:

This repository is in read-only mode. You caught us doing some quick maintenance.

After around 2 hours repository was accessible again.

You can check status and uptime of bitbucket here: http://status.bitbucket.org/
