https://github.com/git/git/commit/93dbefb389a011c9107a3908fd38e743055be267
(2017, Git 2.14.3) made this more discoverable, and
https://github.com/git/git/commit/ef79b1f8704668a6cdf4278f9255e03ca785bfb4
is what implemented this originally (2014, Git 1.9.0).
Which makes me wonder why it did not work with 2.0.0? Hrm. Maybe I
messed up the syntax somewhere, for testing it.
