Backreferences match the same text as previously matched by a capturing group (i.e. ()).
To figure out the number of a particular backreference, scan the regular expression from left to right. Count the opening parentheses of all the numbered capturing groups. The first parenthesis starts backreference number one, the second number two, etc. Skip parentheses that are part of other syntax such as non-capturing groups.
