Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation provides both Windows (SMB) and Linux (NFS) examples for all major AzCopy operations, using tabbed sections for each. However, in most sections, Windows-style paths (e.g., C:\myDirectory) and SMB examples are shown first, with Linux/NFS examples following. There are frequent reminders about quoting conventions for Windows Command Shell, but no explicit bash or Linux shell command examples beyond the path style. The overall structure and example ordering slightly favor Windows users, but Linux parity is maintained throughout.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of examples so that Linux/NFS examples are shown first in some sections, or present both examples side-by-side.
  • Add explicit bash shell command examples, including quoting and environment variable usage for Linux/macOS.
  • Include a brief section at the top summarizing platform-specific considerations (e.g., quoting, permissions) for Linux/macOS users.
  • Where possible, clarify that AzCopy commands work identically on Linux/macOS and Windows, and highlight any differences in flags or behavior.
