Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types
windows_first
Summary
The documentation consistently references Windows Command Shell (cmd.exe) in every example tip, specifying that double quotes should be used on Windows and single quotes elsewhere. Windows is mentioned first and more prominently than Linux or macOS, but there are no explicit PowerShell examples, Windows-only tools, or missing Linux examples. The guidance is cross-platform, but the ordering and emphasis favor Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of shell guidance, sometimes mentioning Linux/macOS first or equally.
  • Explicitly state that AzCopy works identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide example commands for bash/zsh/fish shells where quoting or escaping differs.
  • Add a dedicated section or note for Linux/macOS users highlighting any platform-specific considerations (such as environment variable syntax, file paths, or permissions).
  • Where quoting is discussed, provide a table or summary for all major shells (cmd.exe, PowerShell, bash, zsh, etc.) rather than only Windows vs. 'all others'.
