Can clone from but cannot submit to AUR

I'm trying to update a package, and I can clone via SSH from AUR, but not push to it. Am I right in thinking I just need to update master and push straight to it?

My git user.name & user.email for the commit i'm trying to push are set to the same as what my AUR account uses,

The following command works:

ssh aur@aur.archlinux.org
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
Interactive shell is disabled.
Try `ssh aur@aur.archlinux.org help` for a list of commands.
Connection to aur.archlinux.org closed.

And I can clone via SSH, but when I push, I get this:

git push
git-receive-pack: permission denied: [My-AUR-username]
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

My public key in AUR is correct (otherwise I wouldn't be able to clone)

What am I doing wrong?

Re: Can clone from but cannot submit to AUR

What are you trying to push exactly? Are you the owner of the package? You can't randomly push to packages that aren't yours.

Ah, I was not. I got the impression that the owner would still have to approve my submission after pushing, my bad.
How does one become able to contribute? Or is the owner the only one allowed to contribute? The wiki was pretty vague about this.

AUR maintainers can appoint co-maintainers.

I suggest you post a comment on the aur page for the package about the issue you're aiming to solve and include a diff to make adjusting the package easy.
