There's not one, since something that that should probably be done in a hook.  
Maybe the update hook?

I think it would be nice to get a notification whenever Junio pushes commits 
to 'master' or 'maint' in git.git if I've signed off on one of the commits.  
I don't think everyone would though so the hook would need to be maintained 
indefinitely (updating the email blacklist, etc.).

It would probably be a nice hook to have as an example, I guess.

Definitely not.  It's not that difficult to add a hook to the repositories 
that need it, and I think the majority of repositories will be private and 
not need it.
