Chris, is there someone that could take a look at this for us? :-)

This patch: * allows for an "output_timeout" in the repo definition for MercurialVCS * fixes a bunch of pep8 in mozharness.mozilla.testing.talos * adds a hardcoded 1200 second talos clone timeout * adds a hardcoded mozprocess dependency; we now create the virtualenv before cloning talos, and then update the virtualenv with talos+pyyaml later. Got past the talos clone on ash with no concerns; the talos clone had an output timeout of 1200 as expected.

Armen: are you going to merge mozharness at some point this week, or should I?

Merged mozharness (not getting CCed to this bug). (In reply to Aki Sasaki [:aki] from comment #123) > Armen: are you going to merge mozharness at some point this week, or should > I? I had pushed new code to Cypress to make sure that default was in good shape. I had to do a lot of retries until it all looked green.

Thanks! This bug should be resolved for desktop talos. Android panda talos runs a separate workflow and may not be fixed yet, but looks to be the minority of issues posted here. I *think* I should resolve this bug, but could leave open/morph for Pandas. Do you have a preference?
