…#130) `.juliabundleignore` now supports `.gitignore`-style negation. Patterns are evaluated in file order and the last matching pattern wins: a plain pattern excludes a path, and a `!`-prefixed pattern re-includes a path an earlier pattern excluded. Comment (`#`) and blank lines are now skipped, and `\!` / `\#` escape a literal leading `!` / `#`. This lets users ignore everything and then add back only what they need, e.g.: * !programs/ !programs/* !Project.toml !Manifest.toml Matching switches from an unordered set with an "excluded if any pattern matches" test to an ordered rule list with last-match-wins semantics. With no `!` rules the result is identical to the previous behavior, so existing `.juliabundleignore` files are unaffected. Note: because `Tar.create` prunes excluded directories, re-including a path under a directory requires re-including the parent directory first (the same limitation git has); this is documented.
