I don't think Copilot does this... it's really just a matter of the editor plug-in being smart enough to grab all of the relevant context and provide that to the model making the completions; a form of RAG. I believe organizations can pay to fine-tune Copilot, but it sounds more involved than something that happens automatically.
Depending on when you tried Continue last, one would hope that their RAG pipeline has improved over time. I tried it a few months ago and I thought codegemma-2b (base) acting as a code completion model was fine... certainly not as good as what I've experienced with Cursor. I haven't tried GitHub Copilot in over a year... I really should try it again and see how it is these days.
