REST Endpoint to enable and disable direct commits.

[at3560k]

Do you have a rest/other API available to query, and toggle the "disable direct commit" option?

Currently there isn't a rest API endpoint to do this. If there's more support for this, we can add it in the future.

Would love to hear the use case. Is this just to work around a limitation?

RE: limitations -- it's more a limitation of the stash APIs, whereas there is no apparently no API to generically administer plugin fields.

For the use case:

Imagine an instance of stash with a few thousand repositories, where about 90% are centrally administered by a program/proxy/agent (instead of a human). No human is permitted/has permissions to modify the settings of these repositories.

In the case of this plugin, it is desirable to expose the enable/disable setting to the business owner of the repository (but not the remainder of the repository settings, such as branch protection, readers/writers, etc). Without an API -- the proxy/agent has to resort to brittle behaviours to modify this setting.
