OSError: [Errno 7] error running 'whatever': Argument list too long
This can happen if you pass a bunch of filenames to hg commit, for instance.
This is due to a size limit on individual env vars (on linux, but I
imagine there are similar limits in other OSes):
$ FOO=$(yes | head -c 131000) /usr/bin/true
$ FOO=$(yes | head -c 132000) /usr/bin/true
-bash: /usr/bin/true: Argument list too long
I propose to avoid this by truncating the message. I didn't make the
limit configurable as it doesn't seem particularly convenient to
customize this. I'm not sure if various OSes would want radically
different limits here?
