It’s cool for small and easily testable functions like sorting, but to refactor large amounts of code? No thanks. Would be great if it could leave comments on my pull request though.

I thought it would leave comments on individual lines of code with feedback and code quality, but seems like it just summarizes what the pull request changes

the summary stuff would be better if it was per file instead of overall

Hm don’t think I can help you with that unfortunately.

It’s nice for quickly seeing what a PR is about, not much more
