Description
Github have introduced a Commit status API:
We created this API to allow services to color the discussion on pull requests. For example, we use this API internally with our continuous integration (CI) setup to automatically update the status of every commit on every branch. Now, when we discuss pull requests, we can easily and automatically ensure they are safe to merge.
We also designed this API to be flexible. The API allows the service to determine the meaning of whether a commit is successful or not. As a result, the API can be used for just about anything — like design reviews or ensuring contributor license agreements are filed.
