Thanks @marcusdacoregio! Can you please add a test for us. I think the test is updating the GitHub actions to run ./gradlew check on Windows.

[marcusdacoregio]

Thank you for your review @rwinch . I've added the test in the GitHub actions to perform the ./gradlew check in a Windows machine.

Thanks, @marcusdacoregio! Please see my feedback inline.

Additionally, I think the commits should be like this:

• one commit for adding .gitattributes
• one commit for changing the CI workflow
• one commit for updating buildSrc to work on Windows

Then it will be simpler to backport the .gitattributes changes.

Thanks for your review @jzheaux . I updated the solution with your considerations. Let me know if there is something else that we can improve.

Thanks for the updates, @marcusdacoregio. If you aren't anticipating any further changes, will you please also rebase and change check_windows to include the dependency on the prerequisites task that was added in #9701?

Leaving the rest of the feedback to @jzheaux

Thanks, @marcusdacoregio! This is now merged into main.

I did a polish (02474fd) to add some additional binary files to .gitattributes.
