Generate Commit Message with Copilot gives incorrect commit message

[jsolly]

Type: Bug

1 - Make some changes in a GitHub project. 2 - Hit the 'Generate Commit Message with Copilot' button The commit message has nothing to do with the changes I made.

For example, I just made some basic changes to my app and this is the generated commit message: "Update user authentication logic to use bcrypt hashing algorithm"

I've tried restarting the app to no avail. Every commit message is like this.

I should also mention this is currently only happening with one of my projects. I opened a new window and the other project is getting normal commit messages.

[albinhubsch]

This just started to happen to me as well in a few projects.

always something related to "login", when the actual change has nothing to do with login.

running insider version

[jsolly]

@albinhubsch yes, I get that message a lot as well. Something to do with 'login' or cryptography.

[MakingSpiderSense]

I'm experiencing a similar issue. It frequently says some update was made regarding "login" or "authentication". I'm using the Insider version. I also have many repos in a workspace, not sure if that's related. The issue persists even after committing all changes in other repos.
