It is easy to get the syntax right before submitting to such a pipeline.  I usually run a linter on my code for serious commits, and I've got a `lint1` alias which basicly runs the short fast flavour of that which does a syntax check and the very fast less thorough lint phase.

If you have a linter that doesn't quit after the first syntax error, please provide a link. I already tried pylint and it also quits after the first syntax error.

I don't have such a linter. I did outline an approach for you to write one of your own by wrapping an existing parser program.

I have a personal "lint" script which runs a few linters. The first check is `py_compile` which quits at the first syntax error. The other linters are not even tried if that fails.

I do not know what your editing environment is; I'd have thought that some IDEs should make the first syntax error very obvious and easy to go to, and an obvious indication that the file as a whoe is syntacticly good/bad. If you have such, between them you could fairly easily resolve syntax errors rapidly, perhaps rapidly enough to make up for a stop-at-the-first-fail syntax check.
