Travis CI integrated into GitHub pull requests thanks to new Commit Status API

I love this <i>a lot</i>, but I would love this more if GitHub bought up Travis so I can do things like have Travis run on private repositories.<p>I'm really glad Travis has such awesome sponsors keeping them alive, but I think most paying customers of GitHub would be more than happy to pay an extra $5 a month or something to have priority queuing on Travis, and ability to run on private repos and such. With build checking brought in-house, I really don't know what else GitHub would be missing from the overall process of checking in code.

Great to see Travis supporting Pull Requests.<p>At Mozilla we've been using Bot.io for several of our Github projects (PDF.js, Firefox OS, Popcorn.js, etc) since mid-2011 to launch regression tests right from Pull Requests. It's fully customizeable (runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, etc), open source, and a breeze to install:<p><a href="http://github.com/arturadib/botio" rel="nofollow">http://github.com/arturadib/botio</a><p>We'll likely be implementing the status API very soon. Let me know if I can help at @arturadib.

For all who use Ruby and want to have great CI of private projects today, Semaphore (<a href="https://semaphoreapp.com" rel="nofollow">https://semaphoreapp.com</a>) already implemented support for this awesome API: <a href="http://renderedtext.com/blog/2012/09/04/semaphore-implements-githubs-status-api-in-record-time/" rel="nofollow">http://renderedtext.com/blog/2012/09/04/semaphore-implements...</a>.

CircleCI (www.circleci.com), which we use has similarly promised this functionality in the coming day.

The problem with github for business, is that you pay via the amount of repositories. You could have huge projects, or lots of small projects yet you still pay via the amount of repos you have.<p>This makes it impractical for certain types of business.
