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)`.
