Description

Hi, @jgerigmeyer

Is possible to reduce the log when we have an error? Display only the x lines bafore and after the error, like git?

In bonus, can we display the line number on error? :D

Thank you!

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating the Sass test runner's error-reporting and log-formatting code, then inspect how failures are rendered. Done means error output shows only a configurable-looking context around the failure and includes its line number, with tests covering the new output.
