"!pattern" re-includes files excluded by _previous_ patterns. Reorder 
those changes so that .* is before !.gitignore.

For the record, that patch "works" for that particular source-root 
.gitignore file because it's already tracked by git and .gitignore only 
affects untracked files. The difference will only come up when adding a 
new .gitignore file in another directory.
