[Matplotlib-devel] protected branches on GH

Hey all,

GH now lets you protect branches which prevents people from force-pushing
or deleting those branches;
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/settings/branches.

I have protected our 'production' branches.

There is also an option to require status checks to pass before merging to
a given branch, but that would break our current cherry-pick workflow and
mean that we could not use our judgement to over-rule travis.ci ;)
