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.
