PLEASE STOP COMMITTING DIRECTLY TO MASTER!

That's not how we do development on Boost.

Commit your changes to the develop branch, give the testers a chance to run, and *then*, if everything seems OK, merge from develop to master.

Can't this be handled by code / permissions?

Could you explain what you mean by "handled by code / permissions"? While I understand how a continuous integration framework might only merge to master when develop tests are passing satisfactorily, I'm not aware of any way to prevent breaking merges with our current testing approach. --Beman
