Write your commit message like normal english: capitalize start of sentence, and period at the end (we omit the period in the subject line, though).

Here and other test names: third person => s (fail_s_, and overwrite_s_ in the next patch).

Show 6 quoted lines

It would make sense to grep for the correct error message in the output, but maybe that's overkill.
