Chat from 'fork' conversation went to master and modified one file in two threads

Type: <b>Bug</b>

Main conversation was processing.
I did a fork from previous answer and added some comment - copilot started to work on it in a fork.
Then when I switched to main and I saw that it responded to comment from the fork and then it started to modify the same files in two threads!
