We usually keep track of the options in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/utils/bazel/llvm-project-overlay/llvm/include/llvm/Config/config.h as well. They're either set directly there or it mentions that they're defined in Bazel. This whole system needs to be reworked, but better to stay consistent for now. If you wouldn't mind removing mentions of `LLVM_WINDOWS_PREFER_FORWARD_SLASH` in this file and adding it in the approrpiatel place in the config.h overlay file, that would be great (otherwise, I'll get to it at some point)

Normally I would have replied to the mail on llvm-commits if nothing else, but commits that only touch the bazel directory didn’t seem to go there.
> Ah yeah. I'm not sure anyone follows GitHub commit comments. I thought Bazel phab reviews go to llvm-commits now. At least this one did. But it looks like direct commits don't :-/ Anyway, thanks for raising this :-)

I'm sorry about this. I'll take a look at my email filters.
