Summary

The latest release of GitHub for Visual Studio introduces a new clone dialog that enhances repository list load times using GraphQL and offers separate tabs for cloning from GitHub and GitHub Enterprise, as well as an option to clone via URL. This update refines the user experience by appending the owner and repository name to the default clone path for better organization and includes internationalization efforts, initially focusing on Chinese translations, facilitated by the platform Crowdin. The development team is using metrics to evaluate the effectiveness of these changes and is conducting usability studies for a new feature, inviting user participation through a survey.
