Comment (by ppisar):

 Replying to [comment:10 jstanley]:
 > There are a few packages that I maintain in EPEL, and someone else
 maintains them in Fedora proper. Generally, I'll ask the maintainer if
 they would care if I maintain them in EPEL, but that communication happens
 generally via private email, we come an agreement, I make an SCM request,
 and voila. things get done.

 That's different case. In your scenario I do not demand master branch
 owner permission because the requested branch will not affect master
 owner.

 To be more explicit: There is problem somebody can make you owner of a
 branch without your approval. E.g. you would like an EPEL branch, so you
 would requested new EPEL branch to be owned by master branch owner.
 Without his/her approval.
