I need for https://github.com/mchelem/terminator-editor-plugin to capture different type of path with line number. So far I use this pattern:
(?![ab]\/)(([^ \t\n\r\f\v:\"])+?\.(html|py|css|js|txt|xml|json|vue))(\". line |:|\n| )(([0-9]+)*)
I'm trying to make it work for git patch format, which adds a 'a/' and 'b/' before paths, how do I make this work, I can't make the lookahead gulp the first slash. Here's the test text:
diff --git a/src/give/forms.py b/src/give/forms.py
M give/locale/fr/LC_MESSAGES/django.po
M agive/models/translation.py
M give/views.py
Some problem at src/give/widgets.py:103
Traceback (most recent call last):

(In this link I want the same capture text except for the first line where it is currrently capturing /src/give/forms.py and /src/give/forms.py but I want src/give/forms.py and src/give/forms.py)
You have redundant groups that you can remove and make the starting [ab]/ part optional to leave it out of first capture group.
Here is refactored and optimized regex:
(?:[ab]/)?([^ \t\n\r\f\v:"]+\.(?:html|py|css|js|txt|xml|json|vue))(?:". line |[:\n ])
