Can not rebase or push updates to patches with different author

[Tal Nisan]

Makes perfect sense for maintainers as we have to rebase or sometimes post
minor updates (e.g. commit message) for patches that we are not the authors
of.
As for non maintainer users it is of small to no benefit at all so I think
it's the best course of action.

Thanks.
