There is no explanation of the regular expression syntax used by git (e.g. what syntax must be used for url.<base>.InsteadOf?). The only mention is:
diff.wordRegex
A POSIX Extended Regular Expression used to determine what is a "word" when performing word-by-word difference calculations. Character sequences that match the regular expression are "words", all other characters are ignorable whitespace.
It's not clear if the POSIX Extended Regular Expression is used everywhere in git. That information should be added somewhere in the documentation.
