IMO it doesn't make sense to let the logs to be created under the base_work_dir which usually is the base directory of base_work_dir. Instead all the logs should be created inside the abs_work_dir folder which usually is base_work_dir/build or something completely different. So logs should lay beside all other files for a specific build.

Jordan, if you agree with that I can get this fixed.

I want to add that I assume the current behavior has been added by accident:
https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/testing/mozharness/mozharness/base/script.py#1772
Note: The clobber action nukes the abs_work_dir, so if logs/ is under abs_work_dir, you'll nuke your current job's logs.
Oh I see. In that case it makes sense. Thanks Aki.
