CopilotForXcode Versions Save

• Change the way to launch the service app. Previously the app had a severe performance issue due to how it was launched and a macOS bug. It probably won't be fixed by Apple any time soon so I am migrating it to another solution, which is a bit more tricky. The app should feel smoother now (surprisingly not as smooth as the debug build). But I am not sure if I have broken anything.
• Trick the suggestion service to generate suggestions when typing in the middle of a line.
• Support turning off code wrapping in prompt to code.

Known issues: When you open the host app, but the service app is not running, the app will complain that it can't get the service endpoint. The host app will be able to get the endpoint after the service app is finished launching.

Please let me know if you encounter any issues in the discussion.

New in 0.31.1

• Make the response format from OpenAI compatible API less strict so that it won't break those that are slightly different from OpenAI's format. #456

New in 0.31.0

• Add Ollama support. You can now add a chat model or embedding model backed by Ollama. (Custom Suggestion Service 0.2.0 has also been released to support Ollama).
• Update the OpenAI chat completions service implementation to use the new tool calls instead of function calls. If the service you are using is still using the function call fields, please turn the toggle "Supports function calling" off. The new fields have been there since last year so I believe most of the services have been updated.
• Bump Copilot.vim to 1.25.0
• Bump Codeium language server to 1.8.5

Please run Copilot for Xcode.app once and restart Xcode to complete the update.
