When Copilot Chat is installed you will have a button as in the image. When clicking the button copilot will analyse the commit diffs and suggest a commit message.

Copilot button to generate commit message

I understand that there is a negative sentiment regarding copilot writing commit messages for the programmer. But in my humble experience I have noticed that commits are often better written and more complete than I would have written myself. Plus copilot learns from your previous commit messages and tries to match the style. This allows committing much more often which is a good thing in my opinion.

Reasons:
  • Long answer (-0.5):
  • No code block (0.5):
  • Starts with a question (0.5): When
  • Low reputation (0.5):
