I think I found some potential bustage as a result of what landed in bug 1270317. Should be easy to fix on its own. Fortunately, I think it only impacts single locale jobs.

The new tool has different behavior for "revision" and "branch:" if
you pass a name to "revision" and it already resolves, it won't
attempt a pull because it thinks it already has the revision. That
would be bad.

So convert consumers using the "hg" tool to pass "branch" when
using symbol names.

MozReview Request: Bug 1274092 - Use "branch" instead of "revision" with hg tool; r?jlund

https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/53762/#review50478

oh, nice catch.

I'm just poking around. I noticed we pass a --tag-override for at least some release jobs:
* https://dxr.mozilla.org/build-central/search?q=tag-override&case=true&=build-central&redirect=true
* * https://dxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/search?q=tag-override&=mozilla-central&redirect=true

on a glance, it looks like it sets/overrides vcs_config["revision"]: https://dxr.mozilla.org/build-central/source/mozharness/mozharness/base/vcs/vcsbase.py#106

this I suppose would be bad since we check for presence of "revision" before "branch"?: https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/fx-team/rev/7ca64e0cf6f1250637f659781a782fa9bedc8224#l1.260
https://reviewboard.mozilla.org/r/53762/#review50478

And a good catch on your part!

It looks like I may have planted some time bombs in the code. Fortunately, we should have several weeks to get things in a happy state. I'll work on finishing the port away from hgtool tomorrow and on improving `robustcheckout` to check for and reject symbolic names in `--revision`.
