I had Copilot enabled, but not Copilot Chat. I was wondering why it felt so limited compared to VSCode (where I had both enabled, but forgot about it).

VIsual Studio is great. However, it should be nice that you could do something like "git reset --hard" to discard all changes since last commit. In theory, you can do it with "Undo" but it does not work as expected. It seems 3 years with this issue and git is fully integrated with VS so seems pretty weird. I use TFS but sometimes at home I use git and feels bad in this regard. So, a nice feature should be fixing Undo...Am I wrong?

Great video right up until you ended with VS Code, heresy!! 🤣

"Top" feature of VS in 2023 is abandoning VS for macOS. "Thanks"!
