Please see the following patch which filters the tag list of "!" prefaced patterns. If this is deemed desirable and correct, I'll resubmit with updated documentation and unit tests.
git-branch, git-tag and git-for-each-ref are in the same family. I think it's good to that all three commands share things, like this pattern matching. About the '!' for exclusion, maybe it's better to move from fnmatch() as matching machinery to pathspec. Then when git learns negative pathspec [1], we have this feature for free.
