Does a tool like this exist for git?  I know the Launchpad folks used
one for bzr, though I forget the name.

For this to work, we would need to have a box somewhere running the bot
to do the checking, right?  Or does that run on Launchpad?

I'm not as familiar with the git world, but I can't imagine there's not. Tarmac¹ is the one that's pretty widely used in the LP world. It does need a box to run on, though it's not very intensive.
