I noticed the docs mentioned it sends upto 1000 lines on a request and reads the contents of the immediate files.
One thing I have noticed with Copilot when working on large codebases is that the suggestions are that useful. For generic code it is fine, but when trying to write code that depends on ~100% internal modules, it was pretty useless and generated a lot of noise that I rarely used it and finally uninstalled.
I have been wondering if taking a hybrid approach of creating a mini model of the entire project locally and using it with Codex as a complementary source would greatly improve the quality of suggestions. I don't know enough about all the existing tools, so this might be something already implemented. Just wanted to share this with someone who worked in this space
Congratulations on the launch.
- oshams 4y agoThat is a great point. We want to scale to entire codebases so that this will no longer be an issue. I think you're on to something when you say that companies, teams and ultimately individuals will have their own models. We're really excited about this future and can't wait to build it.
