Adds .github/copilot-instructions.md to enable context-aware GitHub Copilot code reviews on pull requests.

Changes

  • Created .github/copilot-instructions.md with repository-specific context:
    • Package overview (R package for Windows software installation)
    • Code style guidelines (roxygen2, 100-char line limit per .lintr)
    • Testing guidelines (testthat, Windows-only considerations)
    • Review focus areas: URL handling, Windows compatibility, error handling, documentation, backwards compatibility
    • Dependency constraints

Copilot will automatically use these instructions when reviewing PRs, providing more relevant feedback aligned with this codebase's conventions.
