What article on docs.github.com is affected?
https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/dependabot/dependabot-version-updates/configuration-options-for-the-dependabot.yml-file#ignore
What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?
The article mentions that "If you want to define a range, use the standard pattern for the package manager". However for Dockerfiles and docker containers, there doesn't seemed to be a defined syntax for this, including in the Docker/Dockerfile documentation. After much experimentation, the following was found to work:
versions:
- "~> 1.3.0, < 1.3.6"
This should be documented, with a reference to the versioning this uses, or an example like the above.
