Make copying file contents instantaneous

Description

GitHub has just added a button that does the same thing:

https://github.blog/changelog/2021-09-20-quickly-copy-the-contents-of-a-file-to-the-clipboard/

This would seem to make copy-file unnecessary, but I’m not sure what the usual procedure is when this happens.

So… GitHub’s feature is slower because it (will) probably work on partial diffs as well, whereas ours only works if the full file is available on the page.

Suggestion:

• keep the feature, but override GitHub’s button where we can, to make it instantaneous.

copy-file -> quick-file-copy 😃

This doesn’t seem to be on Gists yet.

CSS to hide Refined GitHub’s copy button on main site (but not Gists):

.page-blob .rgh-copy-file {
    display: none;
}

.page-blob .rgh-copy-file + .btn {
    border-top-left-radius: 6px;
    border-bottom-left-radius: 6px;
}
