# abseil-redundant-strcat-calls

Suggests removal of unnecessary calls to `absl::StrCat` when the result is being passed to another call to `absl::StrCat` or `absl::StrAppend`.

The extra calls cause unnecessary temporary strings to be constructed. Removing them makes the code smaller and faster.

Examples:

    std::string s = absl::StrCat("A", absl::StrCat("B", absl::StrCat("C", "D")));
    //before

    std::string s = absl::StrCat("A", "B", "C", "D");
    //after

    absl::StrAppend(&s, absl::StrCat("E", "F", "G"));
    //before

    absl::StrAppend(&s, "E", "F", "G");
    //after
