I already opened an INFRA JIRA for my specific issue (INFRA-10745 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-10745>), and also sent email to them. Steve Loughran made me aware of the lockdown there.
We can reuse that JIRA for this discussion? I don't mind following up later, as we're blocked (YARN-2928). If we need to change the branch naming convention, then I think we might need a vote. Also, deleting a branch is also disabled. That would have been another avenue for rebase, but that's closed too.
