A line in the .gitattibute file is of the form

	<pattern>	<attribute definition>...

i.e. a pattern to match paths, with a list of attribute definitions.
The asterisk they are showing in their description is the <pattern>
part, i.e. "apply the '-text' thing to paths that match '*'", which
is equivalent to saying "set text attribute to false for all paths".
