Copilot Chat brings richer context to pull requests

GitHub Copilot Chat is now generally available for pull requests on github.com, providing richer context and new capabilities for developers working with diffs. The feature, previously in public preview, allows users to view conversations alongside their code, make inline edits, and receive faster, context-aware answers about pull requests and repository changes.

Copilot Chat brings richer context to pull requests GitHub Copilot Chat now provides richer context and new capabilities when you’re working with diffs and pull requests on github.com. This feature was previously in public preview and is now generally available to anyone with a Copilot license. Code and chat are side-by-side code-and-chat-are-side-by-side You can view your conversation directly alongside your conversation with Copilot. This allows for comments and inline edits without needing to toggle between the pull request and your chat window. Chat pulls in context faster chat-pulls-in-context-faster This experience is powered by new abilities for pull request understanding, review, and summary. These abilities add relevant pull request and repository context to chat any time you ask about a diff or pull request. We’ve improved the performance of this feature so you get quality answers to your questions faster. Try it out try-it-out You can access this functionality by clicking the Ask about this diff button on the top of each diff, the Copilot button in the top navigation bar, or by highlighting the line of code you want to ask about and navigating to Copilot in the dropdown.
