GitHub Copilot now generates AI Commit Messages

If you’re using GitHub Copilot, there’s good news for you. GitHub Copilot now generates AI commit messages for you based on the changes you’ve made in your codebase.

It’s part of the recent update that GitHub Copilot has received. So, when you’re done with your changes, you can simply click on the sparkles icon in the commit message box (in the “Source Control” tab) and it will generate a commit message for you based on the context of the changes you’ve made.

Here’s how it looks like.
