Version(s) of document impacted

  • Impacts 6 document
  • Impacts 5.1 document
  • Impacts 5.0 document
  • Impacts 4.0 document
  • Impacts 3.0 document

Reason(s) for not updating all version of documents

  • The documented feature was introduced in version (list version here) of PowerShell
  • This issue only shows up in version 6.0 of the document
  • This PR partially fixes the issue, and issue # tracks the remaining work

I just made it through the CHANGELOG, still rife with TODOs, but I wanted to get a general sense from Sean Wheeler (@sdwheeler) if this is the right level of abstraction that he was expecting. I'd still like to do a little more thematic, summary language on some of these groupings of copy/pasted changelog items (like in the web cmdlets, for instance), so don't review with too much of a fine tooth comb just yet. :)

Maybe change heading to be more about Windows PowerShell and PowerShell Core 6 side-by-side and this decision was made, in part, to support this?


TODO

This should be much higher up. Probably right after Windows PowerShell and PowerShell Core 6 side-by-side

- Fix `Get-Help` to support case insensitive pattern matching on Unix platforms. (#3852)
- `powershell` man-page added to package

### Logging

Might be worth mentioning that on Windows, we have our own PowerShell channel which is distinct from Windows PowerShell

A number of changes have been made on macOS and Linux to support filename characters not traditionally supported on Windows:

- Paths given to cmdlets are now slash-agnostic (both / and \ work as directory separator)
- XDG Base Directory Specification is now respected and used by default.

Not sure if this is the canonical source, but should link to the spec https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html


### Case sensitivity

Generally speaking, PowerShell tries to be case insensitive, while macOS and Linux tend to be case sensitive

This isn't correct. macOS filesystem seems to be case insensitive by default but can be case sensitive.


TODO

## Docker support

Should this be container support instead of Docker?
