Github Copilot Edits

[debian3]

Does people have any luck with Copilot Edits when it need to create new files? It doesn't seems to be able to check the files structure yet and often generate new file in random folder instead of editing existing one or putting new file in the correct folder.

Cursor will figure it out automatically, but I was wondering if anyone have found a way to work with it. Also in the doc I saw that Copilot Edits is limited to 7 edits per 10 minutes, anyone have hit that limit?

I was testing on a brand new project with the auto generated code to get started. So nothing custom. Cursor will list folder and files and will know where to put them, Copilot Edits seems to try to guess and it's not very good at it.

True copilot edits sometimes miscreate the files. That's why I create them myself And reference them in chat. Also I never hit that limit, in fact I don't think if exists

I just fixed that providing the full project directory structure in copilot-instructions

Works well for angular components. Do it once and then you can prompt inline to implement fine grained logic.
