Hi, the .Spotlight files are from OSX (more precisely files for the search function). If you have a good global gitignore file, your git application will ignore all system-files (like thumbs.db on Windows or .DS_Store on OSX), but not everyone has this file, so it will help others to include such a file in the repo. I don't know, what gitignore files are delivered with the github git applications, but i think it's unimportant because there are also other git (GUI) clients. I added the node_modules folder and the via grunt created folders to the gitignore file, that other people can help easier. My changes in the gitignore are not for me, i've made them for other users, especially because the old gitignore file was untended.
Greetings Simon
I see, that’s understandable. I had assumed that you hadn’t realized they were in there. My bad. I’ll add these then.
Thanks for the thoughtful contribution
