Summary0014376: End of output for failed tests is more useful than the start
DescriptionWhen CTEST_CUSTOM_MAXIMUM_FAILED_TEST_OUTPUT_SIZE=k is set, the output is truncated to the given size. However, the last k characters tends to be more useful than the first k as it often contains stack traces and other info, as opposed to logs about initialization and stuff. It would be nice to be able to return the tail of the output instead. Once could pipe things through tail, but that requires finding that command in a cross platform way, making sure that the buffer for tail matches that for ctest.
