Cool, I did not know about this.


Yeah, me neither.  And it isn't something new, it is ancient.

The manpage for this is "man gitrevisions".  It doesn't explain the !
though, and not wildcards even.

(dir.c in git.git, if you like spelunking).

Just for anyone interested -- the manpage that describes the '!' is `gitglossary`.
It's under the description of `pathspec`, and has a long-form of `:(exclude)`.
