Install YAPE::Regex::Explain, because 

use YAPE::Regex::Explain;
print YAPE::Regex::Explain->new(qr~(?:tar\.gz|[^.]+)~)->explain;
__END__
The regular expression:

(?-imsx:(?:tar\.gz|[^.]+))

matches as follows:

NODE                     EXPLANATION
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(?-imsx:                 group, but do not capture (case-sensitive)
                         (with ^ and $ matching normally) (with . not
                         matching \n) (matching whitespace and #
                         normally):
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  (?:                      group, but do not capture:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
    tar                      'tar'
----------------------------------------------------------------------
    \.                       '.'
----------------------------------------------------------------------
    gz                       'gz'
----------------------------------------------------------------------
   |                        OR
----------------------------------------------------------------------
    [^.]+                    any character except: '.' (1 or more
                             times (matching the most amount
                             possible))
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  )                        end of grouping
----------------------------------------------------------------------
