strlcpy() isn't standard. You have to provide your own implementation if you want your code to be portable.

  This is something git does. That's why they prefer it - it's available to git everywhere.

    It's 4 lines of code to implement it. So even if it is not available on a platform (glibc mmmh because of Dreppers stubborness), it's no problem. size_t strlcpy(char *dst, const char *src, size_t dstsize) { size_t len = strlen(src); if(dstsize) *((char*)mempcpy(dst, src, min(len, dstsize-1))) = 0; return len; }

    and *((char*)mempcpy(dst, src, min(len, dstsize-1))) = 0; can be replace by ((char*)memcpy(dst, src, min(len, dstsize-1))[min(len, dstsize-1)] = 0; if you don't have mempcpy
