+Common gedit bugs
+=================
+
+This page documents common bugs in gedit. If you find your problem in this page,
+_please do not report a new bug for it_.
+
+Problem with very long lines
+----------------------------
+
+Very long lines (e.g. a wrapped line that takes the whole screen) are not well
+supported by gedit, there can be performance problems or freezes.
+
+[GitLab issue](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gedit/-/issues/513).
+
+Problem with very large files
+-----------------------------
+
+Large files are not well supported, gedit should ask for confirmation when
+opening such files, providing a solution.
+
+[GitLab issue](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gedit/-/issues/11).
+
+Hyphen/dash inserted for text wrapping
+--------------------------------------
+
+It should be disabled in a text editor like gedit, the hyphen is not part of
+the content.
+
+[GitLab issue](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gedit/issues/365).
+
+Recently fixed
+--------------
+
+### View does not scroll to the end of the text in some cases (text cut off)
+
+Fixed in 40.2, 41.1, 42.2 and >= 43, will normally be rolled out soon.
+
+[GitLab issue](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gedit/issues/42).
