# Unable to push: missing write-ref permission

Problem | Solution
--- | ---
    git push origin branchName
results in
    ... User bruno does not have write-ref
    privilege for reference refs/heads/branchName.
| Grant the `write-ref` permission:
    p4 grant-permission -u bruno -p write-ref -d gD1
You can specify an entire depot or repo, or limit the user to one or more branches or tags. See p4 grant-permission in P4 CLI Reference. A user with the `write-ref` permission also needs p4 protect `write` access.
