in thread AnyEvent::Socket -> Hosts File -> CR/LF Issue on windows?

We recently had the case that someone complained that he ran the same script on the same directory, but the second time a VM accessed the Win-FS. (can't find it immediately)

I should also have added git-bash as example, which comes with a bundled Perl.

    I don't understand what you're trying to say.

    You can access the VM's file sys from without (\\WSL), and you can access the host's file sys from within (/mnt/c). But this is akin to accessing a file system on another machine, meaning it's all virtual drives/shares. The VM must be running, for example. This isn't done by accident.

    git-bash uses MSYS, right? I did mention that.
