Actually there's even this config option:

       receive.denyNonFastForwards
           If set to true, git-receive-pack will deny a ref update
           which is not a fast forward.  Use this to prevent such an
           update via a push, even if that push is forced. This
           configuration variable is set when initializing a shared
           repository.
