A screenshot showing the effect of these patches can be seen here: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=59611 As before, the patches currently require -fdiagnostics-set-output=text:experimental-nesting=yes to get the indented output. I think this is big UX improvement, so I'm hoping that perhaps it can be the default for GCC (if we can make this output good enough; it only affects diagnsostics within an auto_diagnostic_nesting_level instance).
