Corrupt repositories

We have mercurial set up on a server where people can push/pull through a samba share with tortoise hg.
We are encountering issues with corrupt repositories where (this is the current theory) old versions of mercurial/tortoisehg were used to push changes.

I have read a faq on corruption, but that seems to cover more how one might be able to recover a corrupt repository.  There doesn't seem to be anything on things I can do to prevent the repository from getting corrupt to begin with.

Is there some config setting I can add to a repository that will not allow an old version to push to a repository?  Something to the effect of "Your version of mercurial is too old, please upgrade before pushing"?
