That’s not a pull request, but a merge request. Besides the point though. What I’m getting at is: isn’t that asking for trouble? Somebody could

while true ; do
  head /dev/urandom -c 100MB > file.txt
  git add file.txt
  git commit -m "new commit"
  git push
done

and fill up your hard drive. Also, depending on the protocol, they could try fuzzing it. Or, pipe /dev/urandom into nc and blast your git port.

And of course, the first problem is discoverability. Who’s going to find your random, unfederated, git service?

It just doesn’t sound like a convincing solution, IMO.
