Type: Bug
Issue: GitHub Copilot toolsets.jsonc file not syncing across devices
Description:
When using GitHub Copilot, the toolsets.jsonc file created is stored in the same directory as prompts and instructions files. While the prompts and instructions files sync properly across different devices, the toolsets.jsonc file fails to synchronize.
Expected Behavior:
All GitHub Copilot configuration files (including toolsets.jsonc, prompts, and instructions) should sync consistently across devices.
Actual Behavior:
promptsandinstructionsfiles sync correctlytoolsets.jsoncfile does not sync across devices
Environment:
- VS Code with GitHub Copilot extension
- Files stored in a directory configured for cross-device synchronization
Impact:
This inconsistent sync behavior requires manual management of toolsets configuration across multiple development environments.
