Gone are the days of trying to come up with descriptive commit messages... Let Copilot generate them for you ✨

🤖 GitHub Copilot just keeps getting smarter and smarter! In case you missed them, here are 4 of the newest features that you're going to love 🧵

Use the # command to provide Copilot with context. With better context, you'll get better answers!

Speaking of context, the @ workspace agent knows how to gather context about the code in your workspace. This can help you find relevant classes and files

🎤 And finally, the new VS Code Speech extension brings voice to text support to VS Code. Select the microphone icon in a Copilot input, ask your question, and enjoy the impressive magic

Check out our latest YouTube video to see these features, and more, in action! And while you're there, make sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel 🎬

It would be nice to be able to make it follow a convention like semantic commits, for example

When will this be added to GitHub Desktop? I prefer reviewing my changes there

is there a way to have it come up with commit messages in certain formats 👀

Request: Include recent commit messages from the same git author in the LLM input text (including the diff) so that VSCode generates commit messages in the same format.

The commit messages it generates are more literal than they're descriptive.
