redirect exact url to another url

There are a bazillion examples online of doing redirects via apache's htaccess, but I can't find any example of redirecting a full URL match to another full URL.

For instance, I have an existing website at 

https://example.com

How do I redirect some specific URLs for that domain to a different one:

https://example.com/login     -->  https://my.example.com/login
https://example.com/register  -->  https://my.example.com/register

For every other every other path on example.com I need to remain untouched so my site still works fine (i.e. /blog shouldn't redirect somewhere else).

You can use the following :

RewriteEngine on


RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^(www\.)?example\.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(login|register)/?$ http://my.example.com/$1 [L,R]

This will redirect example.com/login or example.com/register to http://my.example.com/

You can alternatively accomplish this using the RedirectMatch directive (if the newurl is on a diffrent webserver) :

RedirectMatch ^/(login|register)/?$ http://my.example.com/$1
