New submission from S. Zhang <spz...@gmail.com>:
The following command produced "name.tsvtsv" with version 3.7.1 and 3.8.5
instead of the expected "name.tsv" from version 2.7.5, 3.5.6, and 3.6.7.
Changing * to + produced expected "name.tsv".
python -c 'import re; v="name.txt";v = re.sub("[^\.]*$", "tsv", v);print(v)'
