While autosave is enabled, Copilot can't make multiple edits to files

[csharpfritz]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

• VS Code Version: 1.101.0
• OS Version: Win11

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Enable AutoSave
2. Ask copilot agent to make complex changes to multiple files. As the changes are made, VS Code will save changes with autosave and Copilot will get confused about changes on disk

Assigning to @connor4312 since he is looking into Agent edits and Joh is out.

Could you take a recording/screenshot of what you see in this case? I think most of our team runs with autosave on and haven't seen particular issues. Thanks!

Thanks for reporting this issue! Unfortunately, it's hard for us to understand what issue you're seeing. Please help us out by providing a screen recording showing exactly what isn't working as expected. While we can work with most standard formats, .gif files are preferred as they are displayed inline on GitHub. You may find https://gifcap.dev helpful as a browser-based gif recording tool.

If the issue depends on keyboard input, you can help us by enabling screencast mode for the recording (Developer: Toggle Screencast Mode in the command palette). Lastly, please attach this file via the GitHub web interface as emailed responses will strip files out from the issue.

Happy coding!
