While evaluating different git repo management solutions, I evaluated Gitolite. One feature of Gitolite that I really thought was cool was that I could configure wild card paths for branch/tag namespaces (ie: /CREATOR/<branch_name> where CREATOR is the user that creates and pushes the branch the first time) I could set branches in a CREATOR's namespace to only be RW for the CREATOR and R only for everyone else. It would nice if Stash could also support this ability.
