35/// through two different means:
36///
37/// - [`GlobalContext::get_env`](super::GlobalContext::get_env)
38///   and [`GlobalContext::get_env_os`](super::GlobalContext::get_env_os)
39///   for process environment variables (similar to [`std::env::var`] and [`std::env::var_os`]),
40/// - Typed Config Value API via [`GlobalContext::get`](super::GlobalContext::get).
41///   This is only available for `CARGO_` prefixed environment keys.
42///
43/// This type contains the env var snapshot and helper methods for both APIs.
