GitHub has updated its Copilot usage metrics API to include the GitHub Copilot app, allowing enterprise and organization admins to track app usage alongside existing metrics. The new fields in the API provide data on daily active users, session counts, request volumes, and token usage. This addition offers a more detailed view of how the Copilot app is being adopted and used within organizations. The update does not affect existing integrations, as organizations with no app activity will report null values.

© GitHub ChangelogGitHub has expanded its Copilot usage metrics to include detailed repository-level insights, a significant step forward for developers and organizations using AI-assisted coding. This new feature allows users to track pull request activity driven by Copilot's coding agent and code review capabilities on a daily basis. By offering this granular level of detail, GitHub enables teams to better understand where AI is impacting their codebase, potentially optimizing AI deployment and improving productivity. This development marks a shift from broader organization-level metrics to more precise, actionable insights at the repository level.
© GitHub ChangelogGitHub's Copilot code review has introduced significant customization and configurability improvements, allowing developers and administrators more control over their review processes. By reading custom instructions from the head branch, teams can now test and iterate on instructions without merging them first. The introduction of a copilot-code-review.yml file enables configuration of the runtime environment, including dependency installation and runner setup. Additionally, Copilot code review now operates behind a configurable firewall, enhancing security by restricting network access during reviews. These changes make Copilot code review more adaptable to specific team needs and security requirements.
© GitHub ChangelogGitHub Mobile has rolled out a feature that lets users address pull request comments using the Copilot cloud agent. This addition allows developers to quickly respond to review feedback with a single tap, making it easier to incorporate changes while on the move. By embedding this capability into both the main view and individual review comments, GitHub Mobile enhances its functionality for developers who need to manage pull requests away from their desks. Now available on the latest versions for iOS and Android, this feature aims to keep projects progressing efficiently by enabling rapid responses to pull request comments.
