Thanks for the ideas.

I think there are several avenues that could be explored with this. I wanted to stay away from explicitly checking the code initially, as there are other tools aimed at that specific task, however there is no reason something like this couldn't be added into GitCop at a later date.

I had the idea of checking that the user exists in a list of users by specifying a JSON list of users. This means that it could be used to check if a CLA has been signed, but there are other applications too. Does this seem like a reasonable way to do it?

I like the idea of ensuring a test has been added, not sure how to tackle it, but it is certainly worth keeping in mind.




I think what I was aiming at is integration with other tools, rather than adding those checks directly into GitCop (as you said, there are already services that check code, validate CLA etc).

Or maybe provide me with a Travis-like sandbox where I can run my checks with whatever linter/validator/custom code I want and report the results back?

Just fleshing out some ideas here :)
