From: Veronika Kabatova <vkabatov at redhat.com>
The docs suggested to account for git prefixes (a/, b/) using eg.
?/patchwork/views/*. My rules didn't work so I tried bare path
(patchwork/views/*) instead. Looking at the code, the prefix really is
striped away (filename = '/'.join(filename.split('/')[1:])). Fix the
documentation to reflect on what is really happening.

A path in `fnmatch`__ format. The fnmatch library allows for limited, Unix
shell-style wildcarding. Filenames are extracted from patch lines beginning
- with ``---`` or ``+++``. Note that for projects using Git or Mercurial, the
- tools these VCS provide for producing patches are prefixed with `a` or `b`.
- You should account for this in your path. For example, to match the path
- `patchwork/views` (relative to the top of a Git repo) your pattern should
- be::

- ?/patchwork/views/*
+ You can simply use a bare path::
- It is also possible to use relative paths, such as::

- */manage.py

Rules are configured by setting the above fields and saving the rules. These
rules will be applied at patch parse time.
