Description
### Value Prop
Enterprise Managed Users on Windows can now sign in to the GitHub Copilot CLI using their existing Entra (Microsoft) account — no separate GitHub username, URL, or sign-in required. The CLI detects your Windows account and offers a one-tap sign-in experience that feels just like other Microsoft apps your team already uses. This removes a major onboarding hurdle for organizations adopting GitHub Copilot with Enterprise Managed Users.
### Expected Outcome
Getting developers productive on GitHub Copilot should be fast and frictionless, not a support event. By enabling silent single sign-on through Entra for OIDC-based EMU organizations, GitHub reduces the time it takes for new users to go from install to working — and lowers the burden on IT admins fielding sign-in questions during migrations and enablement. This feature lays the foundation for broader seamless access across more identity providers, enterprise configurations, and applications over time.
