refactor argv_array into generic code The submodule code recently grew generic code to build a dynamic argv array. Many other parts of the code can reuse this, too, so let's make it generically available. There are two enhancements not found in the original code: 1. We now handle the NULL-termination invariant properly, even when no strings have been pushed (before, you could have an empty, NULL argv). This was not a problem for the submodule code, which always pushed at least one argument, but was not sufficiently safe for generic code. 2. There is a formatted variant of the "push" function. This is a convenience function which was not needed by the submodule code, but will make it easier to port other users to the new code.

argv-array: refactor empty_argv initialization An empty argv-array is initialized to point to a static empty NULL-terminated array. The original implementation separates the actual storage of the NULL-terminator from the pointer to the list. This makes the exposed type a "const char **", which nicely matches the type stored by the argv-array. However, this indirection means that one cannot use empty_argv to initialize a static variable, since it is not a constant. Instead, we can expose empty_argv directly, as an array of pointers. The only place we use it is in the ARGV_ARRAY_INIT initializer, and it decays to a pointer appropriately there.

argv-array: return the pushed string from argv_push*() Such an API change allows us to use an argv_array this way: struct argv_array to_free = ARGV_ARRAY_INIT; const char *msg; if (some condition) { msg = "constant string message"; ... other logic ... } else { msg = argv_array_pushf(&to_free, "format %s", var); } ... use "msg" ... ... do other things ... argv_array_clear(&to_free); Note that argv_array_pushl() and argv_array_pushv() are used to push one or more strings with a single call, so we do not return any one of these strings from these two functions in order to reduce the chance to misuse the API.

Add the LAST_ARG_MUST_BE_NULL macro The sentinel function attribute is not understood by versions of the gcc compiler prior to v4.0. At present, for earlier versions of gcc, the build issues 108 warnings related to the unknown attribute. In order to suppress the warnings, we conditionally define the LAST_ARG_MUST_BE_NULL macro to provide the sentinel attribute for gcc v4.0 and newer.

argv-array: add a new "pushl" method It can be convenient to push many strings in a single line (e.g., if you are initializing an array with defaults). This patch provides a convenience wrapper to allow this. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

argv-array: implement argv_array_pushv() When we have a null-terminated array, it would be useful to convert it or append it to an argv_array for further manipulation.

argv-array: add pop function Sometimes we build a set of similar command lines, differing only in the final arguments (e.g., "fetch --multiple"). To use argv_array for this, you have to either push the same set of elements repeatedly, or break the abstraction by manually manipulating the array's internal members. Instead, let's provide a sanctioned "pop" function to remove elements from the end. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

argv_array: offer to split a string by whitespace This is a simple function that will interpret a string as a whitespace delimited list of values, and add those values into the array. Note: this function does not (yet) offer to split by arbitrary delimiters, or keep empty values in case of runs of whitespace, or de-quote Unix shell style. All fo this functionality can be added later, when and if needed. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

argv-array: add detach function The usual pattern for an argv array is to initialize it, push in some strings, and then clear it when done. Very occasionally, though, we must do other exotic things with the memory, like freeing the list but keeping the strings. Let's provide a detach function so that callers can make use of our API to build up the array, and then take ownership of it.
