Microsoft’s Visual Studio Code is previewing Copilot Edits, a feature powered by GitHub Copilot that suggests changes across multiple files in a workspace based on the developer’s prompts. Copilot Edits and other new Copilot-powered capabilities arrive with Visual Studio Code 1.95, also known as the October 2024 version of the code editor.
Visual Studio Code 1.95 was published October 29 and can be downloaded for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
With Copilot Edits, users can start an AI-powered code editing session to iterate on code changes. Based on the user’s prompts, Copilot Edits proposes changes across multiple files in a workspace. The edits are applied directly in the editor, so they can be reviewed in-place, with the full context of surrounding code.
