Copy-paste code to comments

[Asaf Omer Nudler]

A few months ago, there was some change to the copy-paste behavior in the pull request comment UI.

Before, when I've marked a piece of code and copy-pasted it into the comment, it was well formatted as code (no style, gray background).

Since the update, when I copy-paste a piece of code, it is pasted as regular bold text. I have to manually mark the pasted code and press command+shift+M to make it code-formatted again.

I don't understand why anyone would want that...

Can the old behavior be restored?

Is there some configuration for that? I couldn't find.

Thank you.
