There is (currently) no easy way to specify "write once" access for
files in the repository; whoever can create a file can modify or delete
it, too. You could achieve something like that by creating a custom
pre-commit hook that would examine the pending commit transaction and
reject the commit if it finds modifications or deletions of existing files

But note that a rename is represented as an add+delete, so the hook
would have to be rather smarter than it would seem at first glance to
detect and allow renames without content modification.
