# Unable to push: not enabled by p4 protect

Problem | Solution
--- | ---
If
    git push origin branchName
results in
    ... Access for user 'bruno' has not been enabled by 'p4 protect'...
| A user with the `write-ref` permission also needs p4 protect `write` access. The `write-ref` permission is the sole permission that applies the protection setting in the protections table for a file or directory. As a superuser, run `p4 protect` to open the spec form, then add the user to the protections table with the `write` permission:
    write user bruno * //gD1/...
See p4 protect in P4 CLI Reference.
