Bug Description

If you run Bugit and a Checkbox session is detected, you can choose to have Bugit include the I/O Log from the failed test you are writing a bug about. Bugit then pastes the log into the bug report body.

Most of the time the I/O Log is pretty short. However for some of the stress tests it can be very long. Very very long.

If the log is "too long" (>100 lines?) just attach it as a file instead pasting the entire thing into the bug. I was writing a bug for a stress test failure and the log file was over 3000 lines. It got pasted into the bug report's body and it was taking a very long time to scroll down through it all to get to the bottom half of the form. I don't know what would have happened if I tried submitting such a bug. It turns out, there was already a bug about this failure, so I just needed to update that bug, not file a new one.
