In this case I wanted to comment on a TypeScript issue with the version I was using.
What is the point of providing the commit hash if it can't be copied? I'm certainly not going to be able to remember it.

@andy-ms A temp workaround is Help -> Report Issue, which will copy the commit with other info to prefill the GitHub issue template.

Another workaround is to open the about message box and press Ctrl + C to copy the full content.
