Re:The Windows Subsystem for Linux is now open source by Dylan16807 on Monday May 19, 2025 @03:37PM (#44033912)
It's complicated. WSL1 is much faster at accessing the drives mounted in Windows, but much slower at accessing its own emulated drive.

If you have control over where you put your git repo, WSL2 will hit max speed. If you want it shared between OSes, WSL2 will be slower.
