IMO we should not be doing straight push to the repo whether inside or
outside freeze periods, except for a very limited number of cases
(security, etc.) where review must obviously be private.  Bypassing
PRs also bypasses review processes, some archiving and pre-merge
testing.  Even the entire release process (aside from tags) is done
via PR now.  I personally have push-url on the upstream set to
DISABLED for this reason and use the full git URL for pushing tags
(should anyone wonder at the mention of this in the wiki docs on
releases).

Inside freeze, obviously the release manager needs to be aware of, if
not actively merging, every change.  Be glad it's Eric - he's more
chilled than I am! ;-)

Best wishes,

Neil
