I mean sure, if you're this worried about ten bytes and prefer instead to spend time endlessly lecturing new Mac-based submitters about the additional overhead

  As a Mac user, you should tell them how to do a better job.

    This level of tribal antagonism over ten quite commonplace bytes is IMO entirely overcooked, but it is an excellent demonstration of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissism_of_small_differences https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissism_of_small_difference... Me, I am pragmatic. I have set this in my local config and I've added it to my repos to be certain. Because it's ten bytes.

      No I just think they should be aware of what their OS is doing

      To be fair, if I submit changes and don’t notice I added .vscode / .idea / my_notes.txt / .DS_Store / .swp then it was a sloppy job and I shouldn’t expect the project to adapt to ignore every possible garbage file so that I can continue carelessly “git add .”-ing I assume that’s why some open source maintainers don’t bother either - if you haven’t even looked at your diff before submitting then why should they?
