### Summary GitLab CI/CD variables containing file paths are forwarded to scripts contained in `.gitlab-ci.yml` script sections as-is. However, for **GitLab Runner for Windows**, the variable values' path separator character must be changed in all the variable values from "`/`" to "`\`" before being forwarded to *GitLab Runner for Windows*. Otherwise, *GitLab Runner for Windows* execution fails. ### Steps to reproduce ```yaml after_script: - XCOPY "C:\Some\Output\*.xml" "%CI_PROJECT_DIR%\xUnit-Reports\" /Y /I ``` <br/> ### What is the current *bug* behavior? Scripts executed by **GitLab Runner for Windows** fail due to incorrect file path separator characters in **GitLab CI/CD** variable values. <br/> ### What is the expected *correct* behavior? **GitLab CI/CD** should replace all "`/`" characters in *GitLab CI/CD* variable values containing paths with the "`\`" character for all variables forwarded to **GitLab Runner for Windows**.
