Do not change Linux files using Windows apps and tools
FTA:<p>> I have to provide this guidance at least 2-3 times a day so instead I am publishing it here so everyone can find / link-to this guidance.<p>This may be oversimplifying, but if that's the case, then there's a design problem. Either you should make it work, or you should do some better defense against it up front.<p>If the solution is "eh, just work out of a Windows folder", this isn't really better than using a VM. Heck, I've been using WSL since the beta, and using Vagrant + Putty gives me better results.<p>I was hopeful it would get better, but then I saw this post and shook my head.  "Silly users, stop trying to do things we didn't plan for you to do!"
