Copilot on web expands conversation controls

TL;DR

GitHub has reworked Copilot Chat on github. com and tidied up how it is operated. Recent conversations are now easier to reach from inside the chat, and the chat window can be minimized instead of closed outright. Small changes, but they remove exactly the clicks that add up during daily work in a repository.

Nauti's Take

A small update with a real advantage: anyone using Copilot Chat inside a repo now reaches past conversations faster and can minimize the window instead of closing it. The limit is that convenience says nothing about answer quality, which is what actually decides whether the assistant holds up in daily work.

Teams living on GitHub save real clicks here, everyone else has little reason to switch.
