Copilot Chat v0.42.2: Edit & Search Fixes
Copilot Chat v0.42.2 fixes edit handling during network failures and restores code search with external ingest sources.
TL;DR
- Fixed unwanted edits when fetch requests fail or are cancelled
- Code search now works when only external ingest is available
- Minor version bump with targeted stability improvements
Fixed
- Edit handling on fetch errors — Copilot Chat no longer yields edits when network requests fail or are cancelled, preventing stale or partial changes from being applied.
- Code search with external ingest — Code search is now properly enabled when only external ingest sources are available, fixing a regression that disabled it unnecessarily.
