Simple update to one of the examples to show how easy it is to update the known hosts file so that tooling inside the IDE does not appear to freeze. With github being common and easy to verify I felt they would make a good example: https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/githubs-ssh-key-fingerprints

Without doing this the user would have to go to the git command line run git pull which will force git to realise that it does not know the github host and will prompt for adding it. If the user does not do this in the CLI then tooling like VSCode, Cursor, and Lazygit will error or freeze with little feedback. This would happen after every rebuild of the container.
