Visual Studio Code – In VScode how can I change what the shortcut "command + /" outputs in a .erb file?

In my VScode, on mac, when using the commentLine shortcut "command+/", in an html.erb file, instead of commenting out the line with an html <!-- comment --> it wraps the highlighted code in a <% begin %> <% end %> block. How can I change the behaviour of VScode’s "editor.action.commentLine" function, which is what I believe this keyboard shortcut triggers, to insert the desired html comment tag?

    A solution that I found was to within VSCode's 'language-configuration-erb.json' file (path–'/Users/your_username/.vscode/extensions/bung87.rails-0.17.8/language-configuration-erb.json') make this change:

    (mac–'command+shift+p', then type name to find the above file)

    {
    "comments": {
        "blockComment": [
            // "<%n=begin%>n",
            // "n<%n=end%>"
            "<!--",
            "-->"
        ]
    },
...
}

    Select the text you want and press ctrl+/ or command+/

    You can define the following key binding:

      {
    "key": "ctrl+/",  // or command+/ for Mac
    "command": "editor.action.insertSnippet",
    "when": "editorHasSelection && editorLangId == erb",
    "args": {
        "snippet": "${TM_SELECTED_TEXT/^(.*)$/<!-- $1 -->/}"
    }
  }

    Maybe you have to change the languageID: erb
