Learn your way around the command line with GitHub Copilot by your side!
We’re excited to announce the launch of a brand new GitHub CLI extension that’s now available as public beta — GitHub Copilot in the CLI.
GitHub Copilot in the CLI brings GitHub Copilot right to your terminal, where you can ask it to do things like explain how a command works or suggest a command for a task you want to perform. Learn more about the extension in our docs and provide us your feedback on our repo.
Secret scanning will now use AI to detect unstructured passwords in git content and generate an alert. Alerts for passwords appear in a separated tab from regular secret scanning alerts.
Generic secret detection is available for repositories with a GitHub Advanced Security license. The feature is in a limited beta and access will be granted through a waitlist.
Starting now and over the next few days GitHub Copilot Business customers will be able to prevent specified files or repositories from being used to inform code completion suggestions made by GitHub Copilot. GitHub Copilot will not be available in excluded files. Organization administrators or repository owners can choose which files or repositories are excluded. During the beta program the feature is limited to Copilot Code Completion and VSCode only. Copilot Chat and the other IDEs will shortly follow.
You can learn more about Copilot Content Exclusion or join the discussion in the GitHub Community.
