match: drop unnecessary wrapping of regex in group It seems the regexes have been wrapped in an unnamed group since b6c42714d900 (Add locate command., 2005-07-05). In that commit, the grouping was needed because there was a "head" ('^') added before the group and a "tail" (os.sep) added after it. It seems the head was moved inside the group in 1c0c413cccdd (Get add and locate to use new repo and dirstate walk code., 2005-07-18) and the tail was moved inside the group in 89985a1b3427 (Clean up walk and changes code to use normalised names properly., 2005-07-31), So it seems to me that we've carried around the unnecessary group for 13 years. This patch removes it. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D5352

If you just want a checklist to follow, you can go straight to

https://www.mercurial-scm.org/wiki/ContributingChanges#Submission_checklist

If you can't run the entire testsuite for some reason (it can be
difficult on Windows), please at least run `contrib/check-code.py` on
any files you've modified and run `python contrib/check-commit` on any
commits you've made (for example, `python contrib/check-commit
273ce12ad8f1` will report some style violations on a very old commit).
