No, generally, commits are accepted and a continuous integration
process tests validity. If the build gets broken, the admin operates a
flocking device on the dev who committed that revision.

Seriously: why be so strict as to validate every commit a prio? You
can always roll back to the last working revision: you're using a VCS
:-)
