Would it perhaps make sense to run checkapi as part of the checkin process
and refuse to commit in case the test fails?
I had originally proposed that back when introducing checkAPIs (back in
2006). SVN has the capability with pre-commit scripts:
http://svnbook.red-bean.com/en/1.0/ch05s02.html#svn-ch-5-sect-2.1
But it would take some work to get it to the point where it would work:
currently we can't/don't run checkAPIs in certain directories because,
for example, it's normal to use (the prohibited API) g_assert() in
wiretap. We'd need to break the checks into further groups (or
something like that) first.
