vasilito ff4ff35918 feat: track all source trees in git — full fork offline-first model
Red Bear OS is a full fork. All sources must be available from git clone
with zero network access. Removed gitignore rules that excluded fetched
source trees under recipes/*/source/, local/recipes/kde/*/source/,
local/recipes/qt/*/source/, and vendor source trees.

Build artifacts (target/, build/, source.tar, *.o, *.so) remain excluded.

127291 files added — kernel, relibc, base, bootloader, pkgar, all KDE/Qt
frameworks, mesa, wayland, DRM drivers, and every other recipe source.

.TH PCRE2_SUBSTRING_COPY_BYNAME 3 "19 December 2014" "PCRE2 10.45"
.SH NAME
PCRE2 - Perl-compatible regular expressions (revised API)
.SH SYNOPSIS
.rs
.sp
.B #include <pcre2.h>
.PP
.nf
.B int pcre2_substring_copy_byname(pcre2_match_data *\fImatch_data\fP,
.B " PCRE2_SPTR \fIname\fP, PCRE2_UCHAR *\fIbuffer\fP, PCRE2_SIZE *\fIbufflen\fP);"
.fi
.
.SH DESCRIPTION
.rs
.sp
This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring, identified
by name, into a given buffer. The arguments are:
.sp
\fImatch_data\fP The match data block for the match
\fIname\fP Name of the required substring
\fIbuffer\fP Buffer to receive the string
\fIbufflen\fP Length of buffer (code units)
.sp
The \fIbufflen\fP variable is updated to contain the length of the extracted
string, excluding the trailing zero. The yield of the function is zero for
success or one of the following error numbers:
.sp
PCRE2_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING there are no groups of that name
PCRE2_ERROR_UNAVAILBLE the ovector was too small for that group
PCRE2_ERROR_UNSET the group did not participate in the match
PCRE2_ERROR_NOMEMORY the buffer is not big enough
.sp
If there is more than one group with the given name, the first one that is set
is returned. In this situation PCRE2_ERROR_UNSET means that no group with the
given name was set.
