Replace all wildcard instances in variable names#342
Merged
Conversation
For GoCD env var can have a dynamic "material" name. E.g. `GO_SCM_*_PR_URL` or `GO_SCM_*_PR_BRANCH`. We replace this wildcard with a `.*` and then look for a matching environment variable using the resulting regex. For Java and JavaScript we only replace the first occurrence of `*`. CodeQL thinks this is probably a mistake. Though in practice there is only ever one wildcard. The other implementations also do replace all occurrences so for consistency Java and JavaScript should do the same.
