Yes, for pkg-security we use:
$ salsa --conf-file +./salsa-pkg-security.conf update_safe --all --verbose

And the config file has SALSA_RENAME_HEAD and SALSA_SOURCE_BRANCH and
SALSA_DEST_BRANCH to take care of this operation. AFAIK we did not have
to do anything regarding the branch protection, but maybe I'm wrong.
