823330 - Set up 'ash' to use a user mozharness repo

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: Applications: MozharnessCore, defect)

Description

Based off m-c.

* what user repo to use?
** Currently guessing users/asasaki/ash-mozharness, can use something else
* what should we have building/testing?  (e.g. mozharness unit tests+talos like Cedar, or buildbot-based like m-c?)
** Currently guessing the former

I'd like to have this live by EOW.

That's fine with me.

I agree, since we only intend to use this to test mozharness changes, we don't need to run anything not using mozharness.

Attachment: (custom) fix mozharness steps in MBF

Without these changes, MBF clones ash-mozharness into ash-mozharness/ and then calls the script from mozharness/.

This patch hardcodes the mozharness/ directory name, since we're hardcoding it elsewhere.

Attachment: (configs) ash mozharness full repo path

mozilla-tests mozharness_repo is the full url.

Comment 6

[Aki Sasaki (not active)]

Attachment: (configs) also add mozharness_repo to project_branches

Needed since mozilla-tests looks at mozharness_repo and mozilla looks at mozharness_repo_path.

Ben: we're doing this so we have a short-term solution for mozharness-try (land experimental changes to user repo mozharness, try running builds/tests on Ash, once verified we can land to mozharness proper).
