Summary
The documentation consistently uses Windows-style paths (e.g., 'C:\myDirectory') in all examples and does not provide any Linux or macOS path examples. While there are notes about quoting differences between shells, the actual command examples and syntax always show Windows paths, and Linux/Unix-style paths are never demonstrated. This may make the documentation less approachable for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
- For each example using a Windows path (e.g., 'C:\myDirectory'), provide a parallel example using a Linux/macOS path (e.g., '/home/user/myDirectory').
- In the syntax sections, show both Windows and Linux/macOS variants, or use a placeholder like '<local-directory-path>' in the example and clarify with both path styles below.
- Consider alternating which platform is shown first, or present both at the same time, to avoid the appearance of Windows-first bias.
- Explicitly mention that AzCopy is cross-platform and provide links or notes about shell-specific behaviors for Linux/macOS users.
