Ignore .DS_Store files (Mac Finder) #36

FWIW, I'd strongly recommend all macOS users putting https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/master/Global/macOS.gitignore at $HOME/.config/git/ignore to ignore macOS files globally.

I agree with @gsnedders and almost said as much on @AutomatedTester's PR in wptdashboard.

That said, I'm fine adding it to the local gitignore because on a broad public project like this, I don't expect all future contributors will have set up a global or that we'd want to tell each of them to do that every time this comes up.

While I agree, I feel this is a flaw in git that people have to manually handle this.

@bobholt Yeah, I've no strong objection to putting super-common things like .DS_Store in per-project .gitignore files, given we see such files get committed often enough.
