+ If <literal>EXCLUDING</literal> option <literal></literal> is specified
The empty <literal></literal> seems wrong.
+ after <literal>INCLUDING</literal> options, the specified thing is excluded
“thing” sounds a bit vague here (and in the last sentence as well), but I’m also not sure what to use instead. “referenced objects" perhaps?
+1 on documenting the EXCLUDING option though.
"is excluded" and "not copied" are redundant to each other and the first sentence is basically redundant with the second.
Maybe try something like:
It is legal to specify the same option multiple times - e.g., "INCLUDING option EXCLUDING option" - the outcome is whichever comes last in the command (i.e., in the example, option is excluded).
