Re-sending due to bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1108698 My apologies if you're getting this many times!
tl; dr; if you want to test mozharness changes on try you can do so by modifying testing/mozharness/mozharness.json [1] and pointing it to your own repository. This currently *only* applies to desktop, mobile and b2g test jobs. Hello all, As many of you know, mozharness [2] drives most of our build and test jobs on treeherder/tbpl. We now can point to a different repository/revision/branch than the official mozharness repository. This is handy because you can push to try and point to your own repository and test your mozharness changes in isolation. With this feature, we will also be able to pin mozharness from any tree and prevent backward compatibility issues. This will make mozharness changes easy to backout and visible in tbpl/treeherder. In other words, Mozharness code changes will be able to ride the trains.

This is part of a series of proposed changes [8] regards, Armen -- Zambrano Gasparnian, Armen Automation & Tools Engineer http://armenzg.blogspot.ca [1] https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/default/testing/mozharness/mozharness.json [2] https://wiki.mozilla.org/ReleaseEngineering/Mozharness [3] http://armenzg.blogspot.ca/2014/11/pinning-mozharness-from-in-tree-aka.html [4] http://hg.mozilla.org/build/tools/file/default/buildfarm/utils/repository_manifest.py [5] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=791924 [6] https://wiki.mozilla.org/Auto-tools/Projects/Mozharness [7] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?resolution=---&emailtype1=exact&query_format=advanced&emailassigned_to1=1&email1=nobody%40mozilla.org&component=Mozharness&product=Release%20Engineering&list_id=11694466 [8] https://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Armenzg/Proposals/Mozharness_changes#Lock_mozharness.27_repository_and_version_used_from_the_tree _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
