1364514 - Increase vcssync gexport timeout

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: Applications: MozharnessCore, defect)

Description

[:dhouse]

Attachment: bugX_2hr-gexport-timeout-mozharness.patch

vcs-sync gexport has timed out on both gecko-dev and gecko-projects conversions multiple times in the past few months. The spin-up for the gexports (40 minutes in one case) can approach and exceed the timeout, and that causes the sync to stall or lag behind.

For gecko-dev and gecko-projects, I manually increased the global gexport timeout (not a config setting) to 120 minutes to allow the gexports to complete. Now the conversions will complete a larger batch at once and not incrementally chip at it, after each long spin-up. I'm expecting that 2 hours is long enough for current large updates and short enough to expose an actual failure.

This change is to make the 2 hour timeout on gexport permanent(not a local change on vcssync1/2) and global. I also increased the default git push timeout to 90 minutes to avoid a timeout on push.
