Doesn't need to be enforced. The Stack and Branch objects can be
initialised by themselves provided that the repository is passed as
argument at construction. The factory is more for convenience, passing
the repository to the newly created object.

If you really want enforcing this, it can probably be done by hacking
__new__ and __init__.
