Copying from diff viewer in Firefox omits last line
==
# What version are you running?
Have observed with 3.0a0, 2.5.7, and 2.5.2.
# What's the URL of the page containing the problem?
Any diff viewer page.
# What steps will reproduce the problem?
First, let me say I'm having a bit of a hard time believing that this is a bug,
especially because I've never encountered it before despite years of daily RB
use with Firefox. But I have now reproduced the issue on multiple machines
with multiple versions of Firefox. Maybe a Windows Firefox user could be so
kind as attempt to reproduce it and report back?
The issue is when using Firefox in Windows and attempting to copy code from the
diff viewer. Doesn't seem to matter if the copy is from the left or right
side, or if the selected line(s) have modifications or not. If a single line
is copied then it can be pasted successfully into any other application, such
as a notepad tool. However, if N lines are selected and copied (when N>1),
then only N-1 lines paste successfully and the final line is always omitted.
Does not matter if the copy is performed via Ctrl-C or the right-click context
menu.
I have verified this on several machines with Firefox versions including 48.?,
50.0.2, 50.1.0, 51.0.1, and against the range of RB versions listed above.
I've tried running Firefox in safe mode with plugins disabled, but it makes no
difference. I've also tested with Chrome and IE on these machines and here all
lines do in fact copy/paste as expected. Finally I've tested with several
Firefox versions under CentOS and can not reproduce the issue there.
Going even further, I've observed no problem with copy/paste from the
Description or Testing Done fields of the review request. When considering all
of these observations, perhaps it points to a Firefox and not an RB bug, but
either way it seems very specific an localized.
# What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
All selected lines are copied and can be succesfully pasted.
# What operating system are you using? What browser?
Windows 7 and 10. Firefox 48.?, 50.0.2, 50.1.0, 51.0.1
