Good point. But the patch replaces them with "[ ]" instead, which
probably is not a good idea for readability.
Technically speaking, there is no regular expression library that
supports PCRE per-se; treating \S, \s, \d and the like the same way
as PCRE is a GNU extension in the glibc land, and a simlar "enhanced
mode" can be requested by passing REG_ENHANCED bit to regcomp(3) at
runtime in the BSD land including macOS. I would suggest just
dropping "without PCRE support" for brevity, as "not all versions of
grep handle it" is sufficient here.

Good.

Just a single space would be fine without [bracket]. I think older
tests use (literally) HT and SP inside [], many of them may still
survive.

Feeding "<something>\+" to BRE (this pattern is later used with
'grep' but not with 'egrep' or 'grep -E') and expecting it to mean 1
or more is a GNU extension, and in this case "there must be a SP
after colon" is much easier to see, which is what the updated one
uses. Good.
By the way, you can drop the ".*" at the end of the pattern, because
the match is not anchored at the tail end.

This should also be corrected, I think.
"fatal: '[a-z-]\{1,\}' and '[a-z-]\{1,\}' cannot be used together"
or even simpler,
"fatal: '[a-z-]*' and '[a-z-]*' cannot be used together"
to avoid \+ in BRE (see above). "[-a-z]" (to show '-' at the
beginning) may make it easier to read by letting the hyphen-minus
stand out more, as we know we are giving two command line option
names and in a command line option name, the first letter is always
hyphen-minus. But that is more of personal taste, not correctness.

Thanks.
