I agree with your decision to reject ~, but "!not-this-pattern" is
very much consistent with the patterns used in .gitignore (and the
"--exclude <pattern>" option), so avoiding "!" and introducing an
inconsistent "-" only to appease bash leaves somewhat a funny taste
in my mouth.

No longer, no?  "magic signature" is a non-alphanumeric that follows
the ':' introducer, as opposed to "magic words" that are in ":(...)".

So "git add ':(exclude)junk/' '*.c'" to add all .c files except for
the ones in the 'junk/' directory may find that ':(exclude)junk/'
matched nothing (because there is no .c file in there), and that is
not an error.  It makes sense to me.

Likewise.  Exclusion does not participate in the early culling with
the common prefix.

True, but "git add ':(exclude)a/b/c' a/b" would not suffer.  And
those who do "git add ':(exclude)a/b' a/b/c" deserve it, no ;-)?

Not sure what this case-table means...
