Copilot Chat window 📎 file list spuriously includes DerivedData generated files

Beginnen Sie mit dem über Editor > GitHub Copilot > Open Chat geöffneten macOS Chat-Fenster und untersuchen Sie das Verhalten der 📎-Dateiliste, wenn sich DerivedData innerhalb des Projektverzeichnisses befindet. Reproduzieren Sie dies, indem Sie Xcode Derived Data auf Relative/DerivedData setzen, und überprüfen Sie anschließend, dass generierte DerivedData-Dateien nicht mehr angezeigt werden, während Projektquelldateien weiterhin verfügbar sind.

Describe the bug
There is a problem in which DerivedData files are spuriously included in the 📎 file list menu (if the DerivedData is located in the project directory).

I notice that MANY built files in Xcode's DerivedData folder are spuriously visible in my GitHub Copilot Chat 📎 file list. I keep my DerivedData folder in the same folder as my Xcode project file for easier visibility, and the 📎 file list UI seems to have picked up all of these generated files!

To reproduce this, open Xcode Settings >> Location >> Derived Data; set Derived Data: to [Relative], and enter "DerivedData" in the textfield. Then build once, and see what appears in the 📎 file list. Thanks for taking a look!

Versions

• Copilot for Xcode: 0.31.0
• Xcode: 16.2 (16C5032a)
• macOS: Sequoia 15.3.1 (24D70)

Steps to reproduce

1. Configure Xcode's Location preferences to place the DerivedData folder within the project/workspace directory. (See screenshot) Open Xcode Settings >> Location, set Derived Data: to [Relative], and enter "DerivedData" in the textfield.
2. Build your Xcode project.
3. From the macOS menubar open Editor >> GitHub Copilot >> Open Chat (having installed GitHub Copilot for Xcode, of course—NOT the independently developed "Copilot for Xcode").
4. Tap the 📎 button in the Chat window to open the file list and scroll through the available files.

Results
Expected: Only source files from the project / workspace / file system appear in the file list.
Actual: MANY files that are found in a local DerivedData folder pollute the file list in the Chat window.

Impact
Including generated files in the 📎 file list makes it harder for users to find the ones they want to share with GitHub Copilot.

Additional context
Excluding a local DerivedData folder is an easy fix, but there may be a need for a broader feature that lets users exclude unwanted files and folders from this list or include wanted files and folders in the list.
