Having said that, I do not mind too much if it turns out that it is
necessary to use an unbounded set of random attributes to solve a
specific problem, if the use case is good.
But even then, in order to avoid confusion and name clashes, I'd
prefer to see more like
*.[ch] group-c group-code
that is matched by
git cmd ':(group:c code)
i.e. reserve a single prefix that is not and will not be used for
other purposes.
