Is there some way to show the full stacktrace when an error happens in the REPL? An example error is

```julia
ERROR: MethodError: no method matching to_shape(::Tuple{XArray.Axis,XArray.Axis})
Closest candidates are:
  to_shape(::Int64) at abstractarray.jl:437
  to_shape(::Tuple{}) at abstractarray.jl:433
  to_shape(::Tuple{Vararg{Int64,N}}) at abstractarray.jl:434
  ...
 in similar(::XArray.DataArray{Float64,2}) at ./abstractarray.jl:424

```

Is there a way to expand the `...` and show the full stacktrace?

I think the `...` is from the “Closest candidate”-suggestions and has nothing to do with the stacktrace.

Oh ok. Maybe I’m off the mark here.
