Hi @kilfoyle,

That looks great, thank you so much!

I'm just wondering if this should be under "Reading files on network shares and cloud providers" or not.

My understanding is that could happen on any system, not only on cloud VMs.

Maybe moving it to the file_identity section or even putting under the native option to be more explicit that's the only one affected by Device IDs/inodes changing.

@belimawr Yeah, that makes perfect sense. Thanks! I've moved the new text to under the native option, in the file_identity section. I've updated the screen capture in the PR description.
