And the most the server (which is Gerrit that we are talking about her)
can do is to negatively review the patch as it does currently.  There is
no mechanism to outright refuse to allow a push based on the content of
the patch, so client-side is still the best place to apply these checks
in an effort to prevent the patch from even being submitted if not
correct.
