Pass `--force-short-summary` when pytest is new enough to accept it, in order to shorten the long (possibly multi-line) exception messages that make the "short summary" hard to read. The complete exception messages are available along with the backtraces anyway.
This option is available with >=dev-python/pytest-8.4.0, and it restores the behavior of older dev-python/pytest versions.
