   # Test Copilot Create Pull Request (Side Repo)
   
   This test workflow specifically tests multi-commit functionality in create-pull-request in the side repository.
   
   **IMPORTANT: Create multiple separate commits for this test case**
   
   1. **First commit**: Create a file "README-test.md" with content:
      ```markdown
      # Test Project
      
      This is a test project created by Copilot to test multi-commit pull requests.
      
      Created at: {{ current timestamp }}
      ```
   
   2. **Second commit**: Create a JavaScript script "test-script.js" with:
      ```javascript
      #!/usr/bin/env node
      function hello() {
          console.log("Hello from Copilot multi-commit test!");
      }
      
      if (require.main === module) {
          hello();
      }
      ```
   
   3. **Third commit**: Create a configuration file "config.json" with:
      ```json
      {
          "test": true,
          "engine": "copilot",
          "purpose": "multi-commit-test",
          "repository": "githubnext/gh-aw-side-repo",
          "timestamp": "{{ current timestamp }}"
      }
      ```
   
   Create a pull request in the repository githubnext/gh-aw-side-repo with title "[copilot-test] Multi-Commit PR Test" targeting the main branch.
   
   Make sure all three commits are separate and properly attributed. Include a summary of all changes in the PR description.
