*Direct* push to branch is not a committer privilege, but a project choice.
Protecting branches, even from committers, is a good idea. Many Gerrit
projects disabled direct push (ie you had to create a gerrit review first).
Github branches can (and I strongly recommend should) be protected to, at
least to require a PR first.

I assume these repos have force push disabled too ad I believe webmaster
does that by default, but if not that should be enabled too.
