michael :
I am attempting to mount a file from my Windows (Host) to my Linux (Container). When I mount a single file with a standard extension, everything seems to work fine. However, when I attempt to mount a single file that is a dot-file, it does not work.
//This does not work
type=bind,source=${env:USERPROFILE}\\.sample,target=/home/.sample,consistency=cached
// This does work
type=bind,source=${env:USERPROFILE}\\sample.txt,target=/home/sample.txt,consistency=cached
I'm not sure how to specify that the file is a dot file. I did notice that if the file did not exist, a folder named .sample was created on my Windows (Host) machine, but that same folder was not created on Linux (Container).

Are you sure they aren't there? Linux treats dotfiles as hidden files, so they aren't visible by just doing an ls command.
You can use ls -A which should show you the hidden dotfiles.
