It shouldn't be too hard to put together a script that does exactly  
what you want.

A couple of years ago I whipped up a simple script (see below) to test  
all the commits on a topic branch before submitting them upstream.

It's designed for that specific case, and I'm neither a shell nor a  
plumbing expert, but it worked for my simple workflow at least.
