Fixing the reuse of named matches

2

I would like to increase [the usage of augmented assignment statements](https://docs.python.org/3/reference/simple_stmts.html#augmented-assignment-statements "Augmented assignment statements") with the help of the program version 1.7.0. I hoped that a transformation approach (like the...

Support hierarchical named matches

Selecting identifiers for change specifications

Publishing libraries for code rewrite approaches
