This function differs from `strvec_push()` in that it takes ownership of the allocated string that is passed as second argument. This is useful when appending elements to the string array that have been freshly allocated and serve no further other purpose after that. Without declaring this function globally, call sites would allocate the memory, only to have `strvec_push()` duplicate the string, and then the first copy would need to be released. Having this function globally avoids that kind of unnecessary work. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

/**
|
|
* The strvec API allows one to dynamically build and store
|
|
* NULL-terminated arrays of strings. A strvec maintains the invariant that the
|
|
* `v` member always points to a non-NULL array, and that the array is
|
|
* always NULL-terminated at the element pointed to by `v[nr]`. This
|
|
* makes the result suitable for passing to functions expecting to receive
|
|
* argv from main().
|
|
*
|
|
* The string-list API (documented in string-list.h) is similar, but cannot be
|
|
* used for these purposes; instead of storing a straight string pointer,
|
|
* it contains an item structure with a `util` field that is not compatible
|
|
* with the traditional argv interface.
|
|
*
|
|
* Each `strvec` manages its own memory. Any strings pushed into the
|
|
* array are duplicated, and all memory is freed by strvec_clear().
