Pull Request Overview
This PR introduces a new copilot-instructions.md file under .github/ to document roles, workflows, and best practices for triaging issues, fixing bugs, writing tests, creating PRs, and automating processes within the dotnet/SqlClient repository.
- Defines responsibilities (triage, fixing, testing, documentation, reviews)
- Outlines step-by-step workflows (issues → bugs → PRs → closures)
- Adds contextual guidance and constraints for contributors and automation

- This suggests updating
CHANGELOG.md, but later constraints prohibit modifying it directly. Clarify the intended workflow for changelog updates to avoid confusion.
- Suggest changelog entries for fixes in `CHANGELOG.md`
.github/copilot-instructions.md:19
- [nitpick] The nested list item here uses two spaces before the dash, while other nested lists use consistent indentation. Align this with the rest of the markdown for readability.
- **Unit Tests**: Located in `tests/UnitTests/` directory, which includes tests for individual components and methods.
