How are you deleting the tag?

I just setup a similar branch permission for tags/** and the delete was blocked, when I ran git push origin :test-tag to delete the tag:

remote: ----------------------------------------------------

remote: The branch refs/tags/test-tag is protected by branch permissions. It cannot be deleted.

remote: Check your branch permissions configuration with the project administrator.
