Issue #15611 has been updated by Patrick Carlisle.

Are we doing this for 3.0? I don't think we can rename config options outside 
of a major version increment.

Bug #15611: 'configtimeout' setting is erroneously named
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15611#change-69099

Author: eric sorenson
Status: Needs Decision
Priority: Normal
Assignee: eric sorenson
Category: agent
Target version: 3.x
Affected Puppet version: 
Keywords: http configtimeout settings
Branch: 


There's an agent setting 'configtimeout' which purports to:

    :configtimeout => {
      :default  => 120,
      :desc     => "How long the client should wait for the configuration to be 
retrieved
      before considering it a failure.  This can help reduce flapping if too
      many clients contact the server at one time.",
    },

This is not correct though, as it's actually used for all http connections.  
The option should be renamed to reflect reality (perhaps to `httptimeout`?) and 
docs updated accordingly.
