GitHub Copilot 1.0.2 allalaadimine

What's new in v1.0.2

Highlights
- Session forking is now available to all users: fork a session from a completed agent response to explore an alternative approach, then merge the forked work back to the parent session.
- Pull request creation now automatically creates or reuses forks for public repositories when you don't have push access to the upstream.
- Start a Copilot session in any repository directly from an issue's context menu in My Work, not just the repository the issue was filed in.
- Weekly automations can now be scheduled to run on multiple days of the week.
- Remote sessions are easier to find: the sidebar's new-project menu includes a 'Resume remote session…' option, and the command palette groups remote sessions by repository.

Added
- Added a "New session in repository..." option to the issue context menu in My work, letting you start a session in a different repository than the one the issue was filed in. The bulk Actions picker can also start individual sessions in a chosen repository.
- Pull request creation can now automatically create or reuse forks for public repositories when the current user cannot push to the upstream repository.
- Session forking is now available to all users: fork a session from a completed agent response to explore an alternative approach, then merge the forked work back to the parent session.
- Weekly automations can now be scheduled to run on multiple days of the week. Select multiple weekday checkboxes when creating or editing a weekly automation; the trigger displays a compact summary (e.g. "3 days selected") and the selected days are restored when you reopen the automation.

Changed
- Clicking a GitHub issue link in chat or a canvas opens the issue in the app's side panel instead of the system browser. Right-click the link to open it in your default browser or copy it; in a canvas, Cmd/Ctrl-click also opens it in your browser.
- In the sidebar, sessions with an open pull request now appear above sessions that are still actively running.
- Remote sessions are now easier to find: the sidebar's new-project menu includes a 'Resume remote session…' option, and the command palette groups remote sessions by repository with pull-request or branch icons.
- Search and grep tool results are now grouped by file, showing each file path once as a header with a line-number gutter, making results easier to scan.
- Sessions whose PR is ready to merge now appear under a dedicated "Ready to merge" group in the grouped sidebar view, instead of being mixed into "Needs input".
- Settings sidebar navigation is now organized into logical groups, labels use consistent sentence case ("MCP servers", "Model providers"), and Model providers has a new icon.
- The composer now shows a dedicated Plan pill and a separate Background agents pill again, instead of a single combined Tasks pill.
- The default branch prefix now uses a dash separator (e.g. username-my-feature) instead of a slash (e.g. username/my-feature) for newly generated branch names.

Fixed
- An error message now appears under the repository name input in the create repository dialog when the name contains disallowed characters, instead of the Create button silently staying disabled.
- Fixed a file-watcher leak that could accumulate while opening, archiving, and deleting workspaces over a long session, eventually exhausting the app's file watchers and causing it to stop detecting file changes until restart.
- Fixed an issue where editing the interval of a workspace-bound automation workflow (e.g., manual → hourly) would silently revert to the previous value after saving.
- Fixed an issue where the composer pills (Changes, PR, Plan, Tasks) would briefly stack vertically when closing an expanded panel.
- My Work list rows now stay highlighted while their context menu is open, making it clear which item the menu applies to.
- Opening the Automations view via a deep link on cold start no longer intermittently shows a blank screen.
- Repository name input no longer auto-capitalizes the first letter — the exact casing you type is now preserved.
- The add-tab (+) button in the right-panel tab bar now sits immediately after the last tab instead of floating at the far right edge of the bar.
- The changed-files count no longer resets to zero when a file-watcher error occurs; the last known file list is preserved until a successful update arrives.
- User, plugin, and remote agents are now shown in the /agent command when working inside a project, not just project-scoped agents.
