Description

Here's a patch for cqlsh to set the default client timeout.

10s is usually a good default, but this is useful for testing specific timeout related bugs, especially where you've intentionally set the C* timeouts higher.

Configurable in ~/.cassandra/cqlshrc:

[connection]
client_timeout = 20
# Can also be set to None to disable:
# client_timeout = None
