What issue are you seeing?
If I were to paste some text, such as the git config below
[remote "fork"]
url = https://github.com/sluongng/bazel
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/fork/*
fetch = ^refs/tags/*
to the prompt, I would not see the indentation from the tab characters until i hit enter to send the prompt.
What steps can reproduce the bug?
just paste something with tab chars into the prompt
What is the expected behavior?
Prompt editor should render the tab chars as 2 or 4 spaces
