If I copy code or text from a file in my GitHub repository, and copy it to any Windows application (say, Notepad for arguments sake), it doesn’t retain the tabs.
Is there any workaround to this? What is the cause?
Edit: I copy and paste with the traditional Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V combination or any other variation of the same operation.
If you are copying from the pretty-printed HTML version of the file, this may mess up the original formatting a little.
As a workaround, switch to the “Raw” tab (or just download the file).
