Secret protection must scale with software (opens on the source site)
Developers aren’t becoming more careless; they’re being outpaced. The tools that let developers create more software should also take on more of the work of protecting it. The post Secret protection must scale with software appeared first on The GitHub Blog.

I can't cancel GitHub Copilot (opens on the source site)
Back when Copilot first came out, I immediately disliked it. But I decided to give it a fair shake and tried to evaulate it in good faith. I wasn’t interested in paying for it, but they had a form for FOSS community members to apply for a free subscription, so I filled it out and gave it a shot. Once approved I spent 15 minutes (successfully) convincing it to write a Python script that printed out the lyrics to “All Star” verbatim, and haven’t touched it since.Since then, like clockwork I get an email every month informing me that my subscription has been automatically renewed.Hi there,Thank…
Automated repo maintenance via GitHub Copilot coding agent (opens on the source site)
I have a problem: I'm addicted to making new repositories on GitHub. As part of my advocacy role at Microsoft, my goal is to show developers how to combine technology X with technology Y, and a repository is a great way to prove it. But that means I now have hundreds of repositories that I am trying to keep working, and they require constant upgrades: Upgraded Python packages, npm packages, GitHub Actions Improved Python tooling (like moving from pip to uv, or black to ruff) Hosted API changes (versions, URLs, deprecations) Infrastructure upgrades (Bicep/Terraform changes) All of those…

GitHub Copilot for CLI for PowerShell (opens on the source site)
GitHub Next has this cool project that is basically Copilot for the CLI (command line interface). You can sign up for their waitlist at the Copilot for CLI site. Copilot for CLI provides three shell commands: ??, git? and gh? This is cool and all, but I use PowerShell. Turns out these ?? commands are just router commands to a larger EXE called github-copilot-cli. So if you go "?? something" you're really going "github-copilot-cli what-the-shell something." So this means I should be able to to do the same/similar aliases for my PowerShell prompt AND change the injected prompt (look at me I'm a…
