Protected Branches are problematic for mirroring
With #9 (closed) we got cloning/mirroring between gitolite and gitlab. Ignoring #36 for now, it seems we have a problem with using protected branches. Specifically, we configured protected branches for '*' and disable merging via the web interface, and 'Maintainers' are allowed push access. This seemed like it was close enough to what we wanted, however we now have another problem.

- prevent anyone from deleting the branch
- prevent anyone from force pushing to the branch
I guess we need a different approach.
