[PATCH v4 3/3] t2400: rewrite regex to avoid unintentional PCRE

From
Jacob Abel <jacobabel@nullpo.dev>
Date
Jul 26, 2023, 21:42 UTC
Message-ID
<20230726214202.15775-4-jacobabel@nullpo.dev>
In-Reply-To
<20230726214202.15775-1-jacobabel@nullpo.dev>

Replace all cases of `\s` with ` ` as it is not part of POSIX BRE or ERE and therefore not all versions of grep handle it.

For the same reason all cases of `\S` are replaced with `[^ ]`. It is not an exact replacement but it is close enough for this use case.

Also, do not write `\+` in BRE and expect it to mean 1 or more; it is a GNU extension that may not work everywhere.

Remove `.*` from the end of a pattern that is not right-anchored.
