I have the pattern `*.out` defined in my `core.excludesfile`.
According to the documentation[1], patterns defined in
`$GIT_DIR/info/exclude` take precedence over `core.excludesfile`, so
for one particular project that needs to track some `.out` files, I
created `$GIT_DIR/info/exclude` with just one pattern: `!*.out`.

Yet for some reason, `git status` still fails to report newly created
`.out` files for that project. Am I misunderstanding the
documentation?

Thanks, D.
