Michael Biarnes Kiefer commented on DROOLS-656:
-----------------------------------------------

yeah -
i tried with a rep I will remove right now.
I tried from two sides - local as mbiarnes and on the server as kiereleaseuser.
kiereleaseuser modified some files and commited and pushed them.
mbiarnes modified the same files and tried ti do a git push -f origin master and get:
Counting objects: 17, done.
Delta compression using up to 4 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (12/12), done.
Writing objects: 100% (17/17), 5.12 KiB | 0 bytes/s, done.
Total 17 (delta 1), reused 3 (delta 0)
remote: error: GH003: Sorry, force-pushing to master is not allowed.
To git at github.com:droolsjbpm/testRepo.git
 ! [remote rejected] master -> master (pre-receive hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to 'git at github.com:droolsjbpm/testRepo.git'

I will close this JIRA then

> If someone ever git forces pushes to a blessed repo all hell will break loose.
> We can prevent git forces pushes, as explained here:

> Force pushing on blessed repo's is very bad, but force pushing on forks is very common.
> Requirements:
> - Enable this on 1 new dummy blessed repository
> - Prove you cannot force push to
> - Prove you can fork it and force push to your fork.
> - Delete the dummy blessed repository
> - If that works well, enable it on the real blessed repositories
