Hey Gilles,

Having been thinking about these sorts of ideas considerably in my day job, it 
might be worth considering adding some status checks for formatting. These 
aren’t too difficult to implement, but do require some mechanics. 

Its mainly having github POST to some configured url, and having some flavor of 
script run and POST several varieties of statuses back to the git commit hash.

Further, the public github has the mechanics in place to provide a pull request 
template that provides some assistance with this formatting.

I would suggest using a CONTRIBUTING.md at the root of the project, as this 
seems to be a de facto standard for github projects, simply for the ease of 
creating a nicely formatted page which is versionable along with the code.

All the best,
