Git itself is only using working conventions. So it's a process external to 
git to actually prevent people from doing (bad?) things.

The easiest setup would be to have:  /local/git/repo-to-review.git   with 
permissions to all dev to write to it. Then have another 
/local/git/authoritative.git which only has write permissions for that 
man-who-will-get-fired-for-merging-bad-code user.

Otherwise, you could use things like bitbucket. Have a repo with one 
read-access to all devs. They would fork into their bitbucket account, then 
clone their bitbucket to their local machine. Make changes to their local 
machine, push code to their bitbucket. Then make a pull request to the 
authoritative bitbucket. The code review process is started and merge if 
satisfied.

If you prefer not relying on the tools like bitbucket but rather have 
convention-accepted process, I would suggest you have the "origin" remote 
being your "dev bitbucket", and have another remote name for the 
authoritative repo. On the example above:

git clone /local/git/repo-to-review.git my-project
cd my-project
git remote add production /local/git/authoritative.git

then it's just that normal work of git checkout and git push and pull...
