      Problem Definition

      Currently when a user views a binary plist file in the Bitbucket web UI, a message is displayed saying This file can't be viewed in your browser and offering to download the file instead.

      This is cumbersome as the user first has to download the file before being able to view its contents.

      Suggested Solution

      Bitbucket should automatically convert binary plist files to their xml equivalents on the fly and display that content instead of requiring the user to download the file.

      Workaround

      Apart from downloading the binary plist file and opening it in a suitable editor there is no workaround available.
