Eh, poop.  I wasn't sure were it went since it's been so long since I sent a 
patch in.  I thought only the "commit message" went above the "---" and my 
explanation seemed a bit over-long for a commit message.

I'll STFW next time and get it correct; I'd like to make it easy to use git am 
or git apply on the mail so that it is easier to review.

Most of the flags were allow* and that seems to be a better way to approach 
access restrictions like this.  denycreatebranch is the odd one out, and I was 
considering a patch that would change it to an allow* as well.

Still, I'm happy to change the new flag to a deny* if there's consensus that 
it is better implemented that way.

That's probably better if you think of this as being analogous to 
denycreatebranch.  When I wrote the patch I was thinking of this flag as being 
analogous to allowunannotated.

Agreed.
