We have three double-quote characters, which is one too many or too few. Dropping the last one seems to match the original intention best.
Thanks for spotting. The actual original intention was that the user says two things: first saying "add only what does not match '*' out of all branches" and then saying "add all branches, without any exclusion this time". But letting the user first say one thing and then doing another thing without saying it is also fine, which is what your version is.
