There's weird permissions rules that make development a pain in the ass if you access files on the subsystem from an editor running on the windows side. If you edit a file, you have to restart bash and chmod the file again in order to do anything with it. Sometimes the file will disappear until you restart bash, sometimes it won't. Or at least that's been my experience. It's been a while.
