The reason is that you are not in the gmx-core group and the private
branches are only available to gmx-core members.
Should I allow the creating of private branches for any registered
user? Or only per request and in this case for Jochen?
Or should I add Jochen to the gmx-core? Besides private branches,
gmx-core gives the permission to vote +2/-2 (opposed to only +1/-1)
and thus approve a change.
So far I added those to the gmx-core group which were already in the
gmx-core group on git.gromacs.org.

Private pages don't show up on the web page. Private branches don't
support code review. They only act as a git repository and the user
can set the permission for his own private branches himself.
