unable to copy selected text when viewing files

      When I select text and right click, there is no "cut" or "copy" option; Ctrl-C doesn't work either.

      The traditional X Windows behavior - select to copy, middle click to paste - works everywhere else but (like normal cut/copy) is broken on bitbucket. I get the beginning of the text and the end, with a large amount in the middle removed.

      One of my most frequent uses for the source browser is to use it to locate and copy text out, but with the current behavior I'm unable to do that. This is very frustrating.

      Update - 4th Feb 2021

      • Currently, Highlighting a text CTRL-C does copy the information in viewing mode.
      • However a right-click, does not show any Copy/Paste options.

      Workaround

      • Edit file in Bitbucket, and right click to copy
      • OR highlight text in viewing mode and use CTRL + C
