I started looking at git bundle and find things like master\~10. Whats the backslash doing?

Tried running git bundle create with and without the backslash -- it produced the same bundle.

Looked up tilde-expansion in bash and I gather bash does things to the ~ only on beginning of words whereas as far as I can see git uses ~ only at the end of words like master.

What am I missing?
