How to use

Pick a match type, enter the path and upstream, and copy the ready location block.

Which match type should I use?

= for one exact path, plain prefix for a path tree, ~ for case-sensitive regex and ~* for case-insensitive regex.

Does it validate the regex?

It checks the regex compiles in JavaScript and warns you if it is invalid before you copy it.
