 What's New on GitHub: Weekly Digest I've skimmed through the latest posts from the GitHub blog — there are several important things every developer should know. 1. Copilot switches to usage-based billing (from June 1) Instead of a fixed subscription — GitHub AI Credits. You pay for actual tokens: input, output, cached. Copilot Code Review now also consumes Actions minutes. The era of unlimited usage is over — every AI request has a cost. Companies will have to recalculate budgets, developers will need to optimize prompts. 2. Critical vulnerability in git push — fixed in 2 hours GitHub Security found an RCE vulnerability in the git push pipeline. Validated, fixed, confirmed no exploitation — in 2 hours. A good example of how a zero-day response should look. 3. GitHub Copilot CLI — interactive vs non-interactive mode A guide for beginners has been released: the difference between modes, when to use which. If you work with Copilot through the terminal, it's worth a look. 4. GitHub uptime — what they've done for stability The GitHub team published a report on what they are doing to improve availability. After several incidents last year, they are working on the architecture. 5. Agent-driven development in Copilot Applied Science A GitHub engineer built agents that automated part of his work. He shares how he learned to work effectively with coding agents. 6. eBPF for deployment security GitHub uses eBPF to detect cyclic dependencies in deployment tooling. Technically, a very cool thing. --- ASI Biont analyzes such news in seconds, not hours. Want the same? https://asibiont.com/
