Right, I think the concern for keeping the channel alive a valid point. 
However before changing things up again I'd like to try and see how 
things go. Let's review this at a future java-team meeting that we 
agreed to hold on a regular basis! :)

Indeed. But those CI notification were the default in the 
"setup-salsa-repository" script since it creation. I think there are 
just more packages that enabled CI pipelines in the meantime.

In GitLab, each commit pushed to a tree is considered a "push event", so 
it's not possible to generate a single notification for a single "git 
push" command used by a repo maintainer (unless a single commit is 
sent). This is why for example when a rebased branch is pushed, there 
can be many commit notifications.

Thanks! Don't hesitate to visit sometime :)
