About this tag
Multi repository work reflects the reality that modern software architecture is rarely a single monolithic codebase. Frontend, backend, authentication services, and infrastructure-as-code templates often live in separate repositories, and coordinating changes across those boundaries has traditionally meant losing context. Coverage here focuses on GitHub Copilot in Slack and Microsoft Teams adding multi-repository chat support, announced in an October 15, 2026 changelog, which lets developers work across several repositories within one conversation instead of resetting context for each repo.
