Jira (PUP-9826) Puppet exec timeout does not match documentation

[Nate McCurdy (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Nate McCurdy commented on PUP-9826   Re: Puppet exec timeout does not match documentation exec { 'test': command => '/bin/sleep 5; /bin/false', tries => 10, try_sleep => 1, timeout => 4, } That triggers the timeout error, but this does not: exec { 'test': command => '/bin/sleep 4; /bin/false', tries => 10, try_sleep => 1, timeout => 5, } So, it actually does look like the timeout attribute applies per try, but I think that's just an accident based on looking at the source in exec.rb. Nothing is actually enforcing that timeout applies to all retries cumulatively.
