Asking GitHub Copilot questions in GitHub

You can use GitHub Copilot Chat in GitHub to answer general questions about software development, or specific questions about the issues or code in a repository.

Note

GitHub Copilot Chat in GitHub is currently in パブリック プレビュー and is subject to change.

Overview

GitHub Copilot Chat in GitHub is a chat interface that lets you ask and receive answers to coding-related questions on the GitHub website.

Copilot Chat can help you with a variety of coding-related tasks, like offering you code suggestions, providing natural language descriptions of a piece of code's functionality and purpose, generating unit tests for your code, and proposing fixes for bugs in your code. For more information, see "Responsible use of GitHub Copilot Chat in GitHub."

On GitHub, you can use Copilot Chat to ask:

Limitations

  • Chat responses may be suboptimal if you ask questions about a specific repository that you've selected as a context, and the repository has not been indexed for semantic code search. GitHub Copilot のサブスクリプションがあり、リポジトリへの書き込みアクセス権限を持つすべてのユーザーは、そのリポジトリのインデックスを作成できます。 For more information, see "Copilot Chat のリポジトリのインデックス作成."
  • The quality of the results from Copilot Chat may, in some situations, be degraded if very large files, or a large number of files, are used as a context for a question.

Powered by skills

Copilot is powered by a collection of skills that are dynamically selected based on the question you ask. You can tell which skill Copilot used by clicking to expand the status information in the chat window.

Screenshot of the Copilot chat panel with the status information expanded and the skill that was used highlighted with an orange outline.

You can explicitly ask GitHub Copilot Chat in GitHub to use a particular skill - for example, Use the Bing skill to find the latest GPT4 model from OpenAI.
