How to prevent git branch from further commits / merges etc.

Question

We develop using gitand gitblit. When we finish development on any branch, it may be that the developer is still making a mistake on this branch, which should not be.

How to prevent a branch from further fixing and merging fixes? Is there any way to allow permissions on a branch?

Answer 1

Gitblit (since version 1.8.0) does not directly support discrete branch permissions. You can write a Groovy hook ( example ) or a custom plugin ( example ) to accomplish this.
