Hi all,

Travis recently introduced auto-cancellation as a beta feature[1]. It
can be activated both on branches and/or PR.

As they explain on the blog post:

> that you spelt something wrong? If you're like me you probably fix the

Well with auto cancellation, if you push a commit, the previous ones
will be cancelled.

This should allow test on PRs to finish faster, and also likely
decrease the global load on travis-ci, which is already providing all
this infrastructure for free for open source projects.

So I believe it is something we should do on most of our repos. I'm
thus proposing that we enable this for PR on most of IPython/Jupyter
repos and make it the default behavior, unless it does not make sens,
which we could decide on a case-by-case basis.

Is anyone opposed to enabling such option ? does anyone also agrees
that it's the right thing to enable ? What are your thoughts ?

Thanks,
-- 
Matthias
