In VS2019, when I typed in the Git Changes message box, if I typed a #, followed by a number, it would show me matching work items, and allow me to choose one. That work item would then be associated with the commit.

VS2022 doesn't do this. Typing # is just like typing any other character.

Is there a way to get back the VS2019 behavior?

Just found out that one of my colleagues has the old behavior. As far as I know, neither of us have changed any settings for this, but he gets the work items offered and I don't.

Somtimes at the Git Changes Portal in both versions the error is:

This repository's origin remote is hosted in Azure DevOps. Connect to Azure DevOps to enable access to work items and builds.

Make sure you are logged in, and with the proper credentials (email for Azure Devops and not the VS licensing) which are allowed to get the values.
