We've updated the regex engine in 1.68.0 from PCRE to PCRE2. There are some minor differences, so some links need to be updated.

Please ensure

  • A subject matter expert (SME) reviews the content
  • A technical writer reviews the content or PR
  • This change has no security implications or else you have pinged the security team
  • Redirects are added if the PR changes page URLs
  • If you have changed any header tag links (doc/#this-kind-of-anchor), update all instances of that link

This reflects the migration we made for user-facing regex in semgrep/semgrep#9919
The warning we have here is not accurate for PCRE2, since it supports
more Unicode properties than PCRE.

See also <PCRE2Project/pcre2#39> and
<https://www.pcre.org/current/doc/html/pcre2pattern.html>.
