Anyone with admin permissions to a repository can enable force pushes.
About force pushes to protected branches
By default, force pushes are blocked on all protected branches. When you enable force pushes to a protected branch, anyone with at least write permissions to the repository can force push to the branch, including those with admin permissions.
Enabling force pushes will not override any other branch protection rules. For example, if a branch requires a linear commit history, you cannot force push merge commits to that branch.
You cannot enable force pushes for a protected branch if a site administrator has blocked force pushes to all branches in your repository. For more information, see "Blocking force pushes to repositories owned by a user account or organization."
If a site administrator has blocked force pushes to the default branch only, you can still enable force pushes for any other protected branch.
您可以自动为仓库中的部分或所有分支设置实施受保护分支设置。 更多信息请参阅“配置受保护分支”。

Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
