What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/concepts/context/content-exclusion

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

The first "Note" (code line 51) states, "Content exclusion is currently not supported in Edit and Agent modes of Copilot Chat in Visual Studio Code."
This could mislead users into thinking it is supported in other editors. More appropriate guidance is listed in the article https://docs.github.com/en/copilot/how-tos/configure-content-exclusion/exclude-content-from-copilot which states, "GitHub Copilot CLI, Copilot coding agent, and Agent mode in Copilot Chat in IDEs, do not support content exclusion. For more information, see About GitHub Copilot coding agent and Asking GitHub Copilot questions in your IDE."

It is important to include that accurate information in this article.
