Description

Originally reported by Barry Warsaw (Bitbucket: warsaw, GitHub: warsaw)

Code like the following:

#!python

        assert command_class.name not in config.commands, (  # pragma: no cover
            'Duplicate email command "{}" found in {}'.format( # pragma: no cover
                command_class.name,                            # pragma: no cover
                command_class.__module__))

Note the pragma: no cover on every line. I want to completely ignore the entire assert statement, but w/o all those pragmas, I get a report that some of those lines aren't covered, which is true, but unhelpful!
