Protected npm packages
Problem to solve
You need a way to protect your npm dependencies that are tied to a given release. You already have protections in place for branches, tags, and environments. You need the same thing for your npm dependencies.
Proposal
As part of the epic &5574, add support for protecting npm packages. By default, a protected package will do these things:
- It prevents its creation, if not already created, from everybody except users with Maintainer permission.
- It prevents pushes from everybody except users with Allowed permission.
- It prevents anyone from force pushing to the package.
- It prevents anyone from deleting the package.
Permissions
- GitLab administrators are allowed to push to the protected branches.
- The default branch protection level is set in the Admin Area.
