+# Push Rules **[STARTER]**
+
+Gain additional control over pushes to your repository.
+
+## Overview
+
+GitLab already offers [protected branches][protected-branches], but there are
+cases when you need some specific rules like preventing git tag removal or
+enforcing a special format for commit messages.
+
+Push rules are essentially [pre-receive Git hooks][hooks] that are easy to
+enable in a user-friendly interface. They are defined globally if you are an
+admin or per project so you can have different rules applied to different
+projects depending on your needs.
+
+## Use cases
+
+Every push rule could have its own use case, but let's consider some examples.
+
+### Commit messages with a specific reference
+
+Let's assume you have the following requirements for your workflow:
+
+- every commit should reference a JIRA issue, for example: `Refactored css. Fixes JIRA-123.`
+- users should not be able to remove git tags with `git push`
+
+All you need to do is write a simple regular expression that requires the mention
+of a JIRA issue in the commit message, like `JIRA\-\d+`.
+
+Now when a user tries to push a commit with a message `Bugfix`, their push will
+be declined. Only pushing commits with messages like `Bugfix according to JIRA-123`
+will be accepted.
+
+### Restrict branch names
+
+Let's assume there's a strictly policy for branch names in your company, and
+you want the branches to start with a certain name because you have different
+GitLab CI jobs (`feature`, `hotfix`, `docker`, `android`, etc.) that rely on the
+branch name.
+
+Your developers however, don't always remember that policy, so they push
+various branches and CI pipelines do not work as expected. By restricting the
+branch names globally in Push Rules, you can now sleep without the anxiety
+of your developers' mistakes. Every branch that doesn't match your push rule
+will get rejected.
+
+## Enabling push rules
+
+>**Note:**
+GitLab administrators can set push rules globally under
+**Admin area > Push Rules** that all new projects will inherit. You can later
+override them in a project's settings.
+
+1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > Repository** and expand **Push Rules**
+1. Set the rule you want
+1. Click **Save Push Rules** for the changes to take effect
+
+The following options are available.
+
+| Push rule | GitLab version | Description |
+| --------- | :------------: | ----------- |
+| Removal of tags with `git push` | **Starter** 7.10 | Forbid users to remove git tags with `git push`. Tags will still be able to be deleted through the web UI. |
+| Check whether author is a GitLab user | **Starter** 7.10 | Restrict commits by author (email) to existing GitLab users. |
+| Check whether committer is the current authenticated user | **Premium** 10.2 | GitLab will reject any commit that was not committed by the current authenticated user |
+| Check whether commit is signed through GPG | **Premium** 10.1 | Reject commit when it is not signed through GPG. Read [signing commits with GPG][signing-commits]. |
+| Prevent committing secrets to Git | **Starter** 8.12 | GitLab will reject any files that are likely to contain secrets. Read [what files are forbidden](#prevent-pushing-secrets-to-the-repository). |
+| Restrict by commit message | **Starter** 7.10 | Only commit messages that match this regular expression are allowed to be pushed. Leave empty to allow any commit message. Uses multiline mode, which can be disabled using `(?-m)`. |
+| Restrict by commit message (negative match)| **Starter** 11.1 | Only commit messages that do not match this regular expression are allowed to be pushed. Leave empty to allow any commit message. Uses multiline mode, which can be disabled using `(?-m)`. |
+| Restrict by branch name | **Starter** 9.3 | Only branch names that match this regular expression are allowed to be pushed. Leave empty to allow any branch name. |
+| Restrict by commit author's email | **Starter** 7.10 | Only commit author's email that match this regular expression are allowed to be pushed. Leave empty to allow any email. |
+| Prohibited file names | **Starter** 7.10 | Any committed filenames that match this regular expression are not allowed to be pushed. Leave empty to allow any filenames. |
+| Maximum file size | **Starter** 7.12 | Pushes that contain added or updated files that exceed this file size (in MB) are rejected. Set to 0 to allow files of any size. |
+
+>**Tip:**
+GitLab uses [RE2 syntax](https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax) for regular expressions in push rules. You can check your regular expressions at <https://regex-golang.appspot.com>.
+
+## Prevent pushing secrets to the repository
+
+> [Introduced][ee-385] in [GitLab Starter][ee] 8.12.
+
+You can turn on a predefined blacklist of files which won't be allowed to be
+pushed to a repository.
+
+By selecting the checkbox *Prevent committing secrets to Git*, GitLab prevents
+pushes to the repository when a file matches a regular expression as read from
+[`files_blacklist.yml`][list] (make sure you are at the right branch
+as your GitLab version when viewing this file).
+
+NOTE: **Note**:
+Files already committed won't get restricted by this push rule.
+
+Below is an example list of what will be rejected by these regular expressions:
