Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All examples for generating Visual Studio caches use PowerShell and Windows-specific tools (devenv.exe), with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives or parity. The instructions assume the use of Visual Studio on Windows, and do not address cross-platform scenarios or provide guidance for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
- Clarify that Visual Studio cache generation is only supported on Windows, if true, and explicitly state platform limitations.
- If Linux/macOS support exists (e.g., via Visual Studio Code or other tools), provide equivalent instructions and examples for those platforms.
- Offer guidance for cross-platform teams, such as how to handle cache generation when some developers use Linux/macOS.
- Include a note on alternative IDEs or workflows for non-Windows users, if Visual Studio cache precaching is not available.
- Present any platform-agnostic steps (such as git commit-graph optimization) before Windows-specific instructions.
