From e4aee10a2eaf0937d86d046f85ee569a75cae9ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
Date: Sun, 15 Apr 2007 14:56:09 -0700
Subject: Change attribute negation marker from '!' to '-'.

At the same time, we do not want to allow arbitrary strings for
attribute names, as we are likely to want to extend the syntax
later.  Allow only alnum, dash, underscore and dot for now.
