Why wouldn't you enforce such things on the server side ?

Maybe with a system that let commits pass through if they are 
Signed-Of-By any of {Brecht, Campbell, Sergey, Ton} ? (Same for merge 
commits and almost any other enforced rule)

Of course, having developper-side hooks helps because it is less than 
ideal to notice you goofed at push time instead of commit time...

That last one is temporary I think, git devs want to make git display 
that information by default and consider current behaviour is a bug, IIUC.
