Yeah. We considered that but that's horrible social solution for purely technical problem. It's like beating your child so he won't put fingers in the wall socket instead of childproofing it.

One shouldn't make a big deal about it, but something like "whoever breaks the build on an important branch (and doesn't immediately remember and reverts it) brings cookies/makes a coffee run/... for everybody in the same office" can work if it happens to often. You are right, occasional mistakes happen, so it has to be something simple.
