Is there any way to make it attempt to replace it with just `s` first, and only if that fails do you then try `llvm::StringRef(s.c_str())`?<br class="gmail_msg">

Shouldn't it be relatively straight forward to discover whether the expression is convertible to StringRef without the .c_str() call from an AST matcher?<br class="gmail_msg">
