I'm sure this is technically possible, but I don't personally know how to do it.

As a matter of interest, how many commits do you get per day to pull
requests in Sympy?

Right - I must say I don't routinely look at the github page for the
pull request after it is merged unless a notification reaches me by
email.

We have so far found it adequate to check the builders on the web page
fairly often.   As the person who usually does merges for two of our
projects, I like to check how the build looks after I do the merge.
If I also got email alerts for failing builds and they also went to
the person responsible for the commit, I would feel properly warned,
but this may not suit your workflow,

Best,

Matthew
