Subject: base-files: functions.sh: Add prepend() homologue to append()
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1998027d7cbb9d8f3986964bbdae070296bdce56;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fthess.git

base-files: functions.sh: Add prepend() homologue to append()

Sometimes it's useful to be able to prepend to a variable as
well, such as when dealing with domain names, e.g.

    prepend fdqn "$subdomain" "."

will result in:

   fqdn="$subdomain.$fqdn"
