String too long (> 80 chars).

You may want to mark help strings ("read file names from stdin" and "input paths... null character") and check_ignore_usage[] for translation. Just wrap those strings with N_() and you'll be fine. For similar changes, check out nd/i18n-parseopt-help on branch 'pu'.

These English words "excluded" and "included" make the translator me want to translate them. But they could be the markers for scripts, so they may not be translated. How about using non alphanumeric letters instead?

You should support ignore rules from files and command line arguments too, like ls-files. For quick testing.

Interesting. We have usage_msg_opt() in parse-options.c, but it's more verbose. Perhaps this function should be moved to parse-options.c because it may be useful to other commands as well?
