Describe the feature or problem you'd like to solve

GitHub signin should not be needed for local LLM's.

Proposed solution

We’re planning to integrate GitHub Copilot CLI into one of our products. The only blocker we’ve encountered is the mandatory GitHub sign-in requirement. This restriction applies even when using self-hosted models (such as Ollama), which limits flexibility for our use case. Could you please consider removing or relaxing this requirement to enable broader adoption and integration scenarios?
