I don’t even use copilot. Yet, if you are like me and sometimes use the Source Control tab to stage files or manually write commit messages, it automatically appends Copilot as the co author for that commit.

How does anyone at Microsoft/Github thinks this is ok? I don’t even use your AI, this is code I have written myself. This just looks desperate.
