regex capture with $1 not work in 1.20.0 but in 1.19.10

[rawbin-@…]

with the following rule:

location ~* ^/([/]+)\/? {

root /usr/share/nginx/fe/;
index index.html;
try_files $uri $uri/ /$1/index.html;

}

when access with ​http://mytest.server.com/myproject/browser/route/
path /browser/route/ does not exist which expected to to be /myproject/index.html

macOS works
