Besides a vigorous flogging, we're looking at other ways to prevent this

remove the "--force" flag from our internal build of v1.6.1

I'm wondering if somebody could point me in the right direction to
remove "--force" (safely) from the builtin-push.c and removing the
"rebase" command (we've got no use for it, and would prefer it gone).
IMHO your update (or pre-receive) hook should just disallow
non-fast-forward updates.

This doesn't really address git-rebase, but it will disallow pushing a
"harmfully" rebased branch since those are by definition non-ff.  Why
take away the option to correct a mistake in the last commit with 'git
rebase -i'?
