[issue39949] truncating match in regular expression match objects repr

[Quentin Wenger]

Quentin Wenger <wenger.quentin at bluewin.ch> added the comment:

Oh ok, I was mislead by the example in your first message, where you did have both the quote and ellipsis.

I don't have a strong opinion.
- having the quote is a bit more "clean"
- but not having it makes clear than the pattern is truncated (per se, three dots is a valid pattern)

The best would be to find a precedent in the stdlib, but I currently cannot think of any either.
