Simplify (and avoid a deprecated function):
        if line.find(error_msg) != -1:

> + break

Simplify:
        print error_msg, "not found in:", error

But - eww - don't quote one error message inside another error message without
marking the quote as a quote - e.g. by using quotation marks! Otherwise the
result could come out something like this:

   'foo' is not under version control not found in: ['file not found']

... which would be totally confusing to anyone who is not looking at the test
source code.

But thanks for providing a new test.
