Bug Description

Currently the only way to let a bot make changes to a repository for you is to have it be a member of the team that owns the branch. If that team happens to have extensive privileges that means giving the bot those same privileges.

We fixed this early last year (via a separate "Manage permissions" view; +sharing is only for read permissions):

Note that this is only for git. It's somewhat unlikely that we'll be putting the amount of effort into bzr-related changes that would be needed to support the equivalent there too, and the problem was much more pressing for git given the multiple-branches-per-repository model.
