Explanation

GitHub Copilot supports multiple interaction methods: (A) Inline suggestions are triggered by typing comments or partial code, which Copilot autocompletes in real time. (B) Copilot Chat is a dedicated pane where developers ask natural language questions about code, explanations, or generation tasks. (C) Keyboard shortcuts (e.g., Alt+] / Option+]) cycle through multiple alternative suggestions. (E) GitHub Copilot CLI (gh copilot suggest / gh copilot explain) provides command-line assistance for shell commands. (D) is incorrect because Copilot has no ability to deploy code to any environment - it is purely a code assistance tool, not a deployment or DevOps automation tool.
