Series run-command API: get rid of "argv" and "env" | expand

Commit Message

Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason Nov. 25, 2021, 10:52 p.m. UTC
Remove the "env" member from "struct child_process" in favor of always
using the "env_array". As with the preceding removal of "argv" in
favor of "args" this gets rid of current and future oddities around
memory management at the API boundary (see the amended API docs).

For some of the conversions we can replace patterns like:

    child.env = env->v;

With:

    strvec_pushv(&child.env_array, env->v);

But for others we need to guard the strvec_pushv() with a NULL check,
since we're not passing in the "v" member of a "struct strvec",
e.g. in the case of tmp_objdir_env()'s return value.

Ideally we'd rename the "env_array" member to simply "env" as a
follow-up, since it and "args" are now inconsistent in not having an
"_array" suffix, and seemingly without any good reason, unless we look
at the history of how they came to be.

But as we've currently got 122 in-tree hits for a "git grep env_array"
let's leave that for now (and possibly forever). Doing that rename
would be too disruptive.
