From 23c1ab92be6332fb528efc2d549898a5f1d17bf9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Quentin Schulz Date: Wed, 17 Jan 2024 18:59:11 +0100 Subject: env: allow to copy value from default environment into a buffer env_get_default suffers from a particular issue int that it can only return a value truncated to gd->env_buf (32) characters. This may be enough for most variables but it isn't for others, so let's allow users to provide a preallocated buffer to copy the value into instead, allowing for more control, though it'll still be truncated if the value size is bigger than the preallocated buffer.
