Perhaps add a `Link:` to Git's commit b338e9f66873 ("ls-files: error
out on -i unless -o or -c are specified")

    https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git/commit/?id=b338e9f668737e08201c990450b8c3d744f63162

Perhaps we could say "global exclusion file" instead (since it could
be the one from `core.excludesFile` too).

By the way, in the commit title: "gitinogre" -> "gitignore"
