Thanks @jakkdl!
I really appreciate your writeup in #12943 (comment), but continue to prefer this style for a few reasons:
- when the nodeid is long and we can get truncation of this short message, I want to keep the leaf-type as the first part of this message. Generally users who are seeing ExceptionGroups know they're possible, so I'm not too worried about truncating that note away in such cases
- single-leaf groups are qualitatively simpler to think about than multi-leaf groups - the structure of the latter often matters, for example, while the former are basically just extra structure in the traceback - and so discarding the more complex structure feels a bit worse
- I think we'll probably want to do something better for these cases too at some point, but I don't yet know what and would prefer to wait until we have a proposal that users seem enthusiastic about.
I'm happy with this PR as-is since it seems to me like a clear improvement on the status quo; if nobody else has feedback I'll merge in a few days 🙂

fixes #12943
As
ExceptionInfostill doesn't have proper support for exception groups this continues upon the hacky solution from #10209, modifying the reprcrash as well.I find this solution ... incredibly hacky and ugly, and am not a fan that n==1 gets handled but not n==2. But conceptually it just gets really tricky to figure out what info to strip, and how to show that. If we're going with stripping structure & group messages we could extend this solution to something like
[in ExceptionGroup]: ValueError("foo"), TypeError("bar").EDIT: less hacky now that I moved the code to
ExceptionInfo.exconly
