Download GitHub Copilot 0.2.5

What's new in v0.2.5

Added
- Workflow schedules now support quarter-hour start times (e.g. 12:15 AM), giving more flexibility when configuring daily and weekly automations.

Changed
- Composer status pills are now hidden while prompt or widget takeover surfaces are active, keeping the focus on the current decision. Pending-decision row numbers also stay aligned when choices wrap to multiple lines.
- Improved accessibility across onboarding, including better keyboard navigation, focus rings, and screen reader support for theme selection, as well as clearer repository-selection semantics.

Fixed
- App auto-update now retries failed authenticated requests anonymously, fixing update failures for users whose GitHub token is blocked by SAML/SSO enforcement.
- Fixed an issue where workflow creation could get stuck on clean installs due to the model picker showing a default model that wasn't recognized by the workflow dialog.
- Fixed focus ring rendering issues on home composer buttons — including clipping, z-order, WebKit ghost outlines, and pixel misalignments.
- Fixed sidebar navigation snapping back to the active chat when clicking Workflows or other sidebar items while the quick chat composer was focused.
- Fixed the composer send button visibly shifting position when switching between sessions.
- Follow-up messages submitted in the composer while a session is starting are now queued and shown immediately, instead of being blocked until the session is ready.
- In-place (non-worktree) sessions now stay on the current branch by default. The agent will no longer create new branches, switch branches, or commit without being explicitly asked to do so.
- Long branch names in the home screen branch picker no longer overflow their container.
- Nested lists in the markdown editor now render with correct indentation.
- Nested markdown lists now render with correct indentation.
- Restored bottom spacing and muted backdrop on the draft session composer so the project and branch pickers are visually grouped with the composer card.
- Restored live git clone progress updates (e.g. "Receiving objects: 42%") in the workspace cloning indicator
- Session creation no longer fails when a stale git lock file is present — the lock file is now automatically removed and the operation retried.
- The My Work inbox filter panel now remembers whether it was open when navigating away and back.
