Explanation

GitHub Copilot content exclusions (which prevent specified files or repositories from being used as context for Copilot suggestions) take up to 30 minutes to propagate and take effect after being configured or updated. This applies both to adding new exclusion rules and modifying existing ones. Administrators and developers should be aware of this delay when rolling out content exclusion policies, as Copilot may still reference excluded content during the propagation window.
