It looks to me like you want to verify build before checkin. Aren't you able to run the build locally?
Jenkins in conjunction with git can reject pull-requests if the build fails. https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/GitHub+pull+request+builder+plugin Some other CI tools have support for a sandbox build that uses changes from your environment against a selected build and version on server. I am not sure that there is a Jenkins plugin that does this.
