Thank you for this very useful patch! I really like it a lot sofar.
One question, the manual suggests that backreferences are supported,
however, when I use them, I always get the entire input pattern, not
just what's between the parenthesis.
An example of what I would like to be able to do:
[bla-list-commits] r12345 - some/path/and/file
turn into
12345: some/path/file
I tried:
subjectrx "^\\[bla-list-commits\\] r([0-9]+) - " "%1: %R"
I get:
[bla-list-commits] r12345 - : some/path/and/file
Am I doing something wrong?
