Description

(#11535) Update file type with Windows-specific quirks

This commit adds the following Win-specific information to the file type's documentation:

  • No symlinks
  • Puppet doesn't translate line-endings (that is, content is managed in binary mode)
  • Paths need drive letters
  • Use / in paths, not \
  • Users can be groups and vice-versa
  • Other maps to Everyone
  • r/w/x map to FILE_GENERIC_READ, FILE_GENERIC_WRITE, and FILE_GENERIC_EXECUTE
  • User permissions should be superset of group which should be superset of other
  • Mapped drives are OK for file sources
