GitHub Mobile now supports fixing pull request merge conflicts with Copilot cloud agent, making it easier to unblock pull requests while you’re on the go.
When a pull request has merge conflicts, you can now start the Copilot workflow directly from the pull request merge box on mobile. Tap Fix with Copilot to prepopulate a comment asking Copilot to resolve the conflicts, then submit it to launch Copilot cloud agent.
This brings the streamlined “fix merge conflicts” experience to GitHub Mobile, so you can:
- View merge conflict alerts in the mobile app.
- Start Copilot cloud agent from the pull request merge box.
- Ask Copilot to resolve conflicts with a prefilled prompt.
- Get clear feedback when the request succeeds or if something goes wrong.
You can also continue to mention @copilot
in pull request comments to ask Copilot to help with other tasks, such as:
- Fixing failing GitHub Actions workflows.
- Addressing code review comments.
- Adding tests or making follow-up code changes.
This is now available on the latest production build of GitHub Mobile on iOS and Android.
