Closed: Won't Fix
Reopen Issue

When I try to force-push, I get this error:

remote: Forced pushes are not allowed
remote: Denied push for ref 'refs/heads/pcahyna-test' for user 'pcahyna'
remote: All changes have been rejected
To ssh://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/rpms/linux-system-roles.git
! [remote rejected] pcahyna-test -> pcahyna-test (pre-receive hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/rpms/linux-system-roles.git'

I saw that there was a change to allow per branch force-push authorization - #793 . I have the hook "Block non fast-forward pushes" unchecked in https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/linux-system-roles/settings#hooks-tab and pushes are still not allowed. I suppose this is a bug, because if force-pushes are intended to be always disabled, what is the purpose of that hook?

Force pushes are indeed always block on src.fp.o and this is specific to that
pagure instance, it's not a pagure (the upstream project) bug per say

Thanks for the explanation. Is there a proper place to report it for src.fp.o, or is it intentional and not worth opening an issue?

It is intentional for src.fp.o to block force-push, we do not want to re-write
history for audibility purposes (we need to be able to track down how were done
each builds)

Works as designed, behavior is limited to src.fp.o and the specific requirements of this instance, 'force-pushes' are in general allowed in pagure.
