Great!

I think this would be *fantastic*.  I have no time for this at the
moment, but anyone willing to help setting this up would be my hero.

Really :)

This is efficient and not intrusive.

To give another argument about why I think a pre-push hook on the
developer's side is wrong, imagine this scenario:

- developer A pushes a commit, all tests pass
- developer B works on latest HEAD assuming all tests pass
- he wants to push his commits but the tests fail
- he naturally thinks it's a problem with *his* changes
- ... but it is not ...
- M-x doctor RET

This happened for real: recently some tests passed under Emacs <24.3
but failed under Emacs >=24.3.  If we had a pre-push hook, I would not
even be able to push the fix, I would have to deactive the hook first.

Best,
