Unable to delete .gitconfig folder in user home wsl2

I want delete the .gitconfig folder in my user's home directory on Ubuntu 20-.04 (WSL2) but I'm getting this strange error:

rm: cannot remove '.gitconfig/': Device or resource busy

I've tried testing through lsof but no results show up.

I had the same issue: I could delete this folder from Windows, by going to \\wsl$\Ubuntu-20.04\home\<my_username> and deleting .gitconfig folder, but it was immediately recreated.

Turns out that what was keeping it busy is the Docker integration for WSL2.
I stopped the (Windows) process, and I was able to rm -R ~/.gitconfig from windows.
I then created the file ~/.gitconfig to prevent Docker from repeating this nasty behavior
