vim-copilot-ignore

A Vim plugin to automatically disable Copilot in buffers matching patterns specified in .copilotignore or ~/.copilotignore.

One good use case is sensitive files. For example, if you have API keys in a local .env (dotenv) file, it would would be more secure to avoid sending the contents of that file to a server.

Installation

Use your favorite plugin manager.

For example, using vim-plug:

Plug 'panozzaj/vim-copilot-ignore'

Usage

Create a .copilotignore file in your project directory or a global ~/.copilotignore file. Add patterns to ignore, one per line:

.env
backup/*
