problem with branch permissions

[youxing98]

we try to utilize branch permissions feature to allow some developers to commit changes to specific branch of the repository, but we run into problem, the following is what we did:

1. create project DEMO

2. create user ABC and assign him Observer permission to project DEMO

3. create branch DEMO-2a from DEMO

4. using Branch permissions, assign user ABC to branch DEMO-2a

here is what we got when user ABC tries to commit the changes to branch DEMO-2a

c: Program Files (x86) Git bin git.exe push --recurse-submodule=check --progress origin DEMO-2a:DEMO-2a

fatal: remote error: Insufficient permissions

You do not have permission to push to the repository DEMO in project DEMO

Are we miss anything? thanks!

Branch permissions are working differently from what I have thought

when I add user XYZ to branch "DEMO-X" using branch permissions, all other users will not be able to write to that branch even though they have contributor permission to the project.
