 Include patterns are anchored: `src` includes only `<project_root>/src` and not `<project_root>/test/src`. To include any directory named `src`, use a prefix match like so: `**/src`, but note that these can notably slow down the Python file discovery.
 
-Exclude patterns aren't anchored unless they contain a `/`: `venv` excludes any directory named `venv`, e.g. it excludes `<project_root>/venv` and `<project_root>/sub/venv`.
+Unlike include patterns, exclude patterns aren't anchored unless they contain a `/`: `venv` excludes any directory named `venv`, e.g. it excludes `<project_root>/venv` and `<project_root>/sub/venv`.
 
 All fields accepting patterns use the reduced portable glob syntax from [PEP 639](https://peps.python.org/pep-0639/#add-license-FILES-key), with the addition that characters can be escaped with a backslash.
