I've put this in place - except I used ^REL\d+... and not what you
suggested, since that's how we name our branches :P

I'm going to push an actual valid branch, let's say 9.7, and then
remove it again, just to make sure things worked (with it installed I
cannot push an invalid branch, so i can't test the branch removal
block). So don't panic if you see that one :)
