Hey,

I try to replace the watch 4 file for Nextcloud-desktop with a version 5
one. And this does not make the whole syntax better even more clumsy.
The problem here is that I need to limit the tags to v(\d[\d.]+) as
there are also v(\d[\d.]+)-rc.1 tags ( that should not match).

my old one was:
version=4
  https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/tags \
  (?:.*?/)?v?(\d[\d.]*)\.tar\.gz

The expected one actully is limiting the urls correctly:

Version: 5

Template: GitHub
Owner: nextcloud
Project: desktop
Matching-Pattern:
https://api.github.com/repos/[^/]+/[^/]+/git/refs/tags/v(\d[\d\.]+)(?:")

I need this (?:") at the end, as otherwise v6.0.0-rc.1 would still
match, but the -rc.1 would be ignored silently and uscan would try to
download v6.0.0. 

but with this uscan tries to download ( with a ending "):
https://api.github.com/repos/nextcloud/desktop/tarball/refs/tags/v4.0.1";

Sure I now can mangle the version afterwards too.

What I'm missing, is that there is look ahaed support (?=") and/or by
default a definded start/end for the Matching-Pattern. As this pattern
is executed inside a json stream beginnig/ending " should be existing.
Or that there is defined Version-Pattern entry to define how versions
look like.

It is still possible that I simpl< overseen a feature in uscan.

Regards,

hefee
