-----------
For each pathname given via the command-line or from a file via
`--stdin`, show the pattern from .gitignore (or other input files to
the exclude mechanism) that decides if the pathname is excluded or
included. Later patterns within a file take precedence over earlier
ones.
`--stdin`, check whether the file is excluded by .gitignore (or other
input files to the exclude mechanism) and output the path if it is
excluded.
By default, tracked files are not shown at all since they are not
subject to exclude rules; but see `--no-index'.
