@github Yeah, I've been using it for a month, on over 700 commits. I would say it generated a relevant commit message about 20-30 times The rest of the time, it just says I'm refactoring things, as if I didn't add any new code ever

@github I have a repository with Word documents only. Nine times out of ten Copilot is spot on with a commit message in VS Code.

@github By your IDE you mean VS Code.

@github Can GitHub Copilot replace my job for me? No, wait, it already did.

@github I wish we could tweak the prompt. Most of the time the commit messages are not worth using.

@github Fascinating! Absolutely loving it!

@github Maybe I should pay more attention to my commit message? I mean what’s the harm of ‘fixed bugs’ ?

@github I use the command line already. Thanks lolol

@github You don't learn when copilot is on.

@github but not on jetbrains ide

@github Yes! I love that feature!! It's not perfect, but it works more times than not.

@github What theme is this ?

@github When a repository has some commit message guidelines, will this generate commit messages in context of guideline.

@github I know that

@github is it supports system prompt?

@github Feedback: commit messages with way over 500 characters are generated for me. This makes sense for a PR - but not for a commit message. Unfortunately, you cannot copy the AI suggestion from the dialogue box to copy it into the PR text. Idea and result is great, but UX is not :-(

@github I dont need (that much) AI to do that I want to tap commit and push without a msg 😅
