Question on GitHub Workspaces and Spark

[GregGolden35]

We use Azure DevOps for source control, pull requests, test plans, CI/CD, etc.
We also use GitHub Copilot.

Would we have to migrate/move all of our code to GitHub repositories to utilize GitHub Workspaces and Spark using our existing codebases (instead of using DevOps)?

You don't have to move all your code from Azure DevOps to GitHub to take advantage of GitHub Workspaces and Spark. You can keep using Azure DevOps for CI/CD while integrating GitHub for collaboration and project management. This hybrid approach allows you to use Azure Boards with GitHub repositories, enabling better tracking of work items. If you do decide to migrate, GitHub provides tools to help import your repositories from Azure DevOps easily. This way, you can enjoy the benefits of both platforms without having to completely overhaul your existing setup

Thank you! How would I go about that integration?

Possibly I'm slightly jumping the gun and need to wait for this week's releases from GitHub?

The YouTube video linked above explained how to connect GitHub repos with Devops boards. That isn't exactly what I'm wanting.

I'm looking for a way to use GitHub features like Copilot AI in codespaces, Copilot AI in PRs but continue to keep our code in Azure Devops.

I'm thinking the answer is to wait until Microsoft releases similar features in Azure Devops.

Migrating all of our code to GitHub would be a massive undertaking.
