Ok, to avoid such mistakes in the future I've come up with the following one
liner shell script. I though it might be worth sharing in case others find
this useful as well.

#!/bin/sh
EDITOR="sed -i 's/^\(pick .*\)$/\1\nexec make/'" git rebase -p -i $1


Pass it a commit id and it will run `make` for each commit in the range of
the passed commit up to HEAD. If make fails it will stop at the current commit.

E.g.

`./git-compiletest HEAD~10`
