Whether you are a new or experienced git user, at one point in your git career using a Mac, you stumbled upon the fabled .DS_Store file. This little file is a 'Desktop Services Store' that contains attributes of a folder and is created every single time a folder is navigated to. Man, that's a lot of .DS_Store files. For the average Mac user, these files are never seen because they are hidden. However, any git user will know that annoying feeling when they notice that a pesky .DS_Store file has crept its way into their repo. Here is a tutorial on how to solve this problem, once and for all.
Repo For Mac Os X 10.10
A sample .DS_Store file for those who may not know what they look like:
Step 1) If you would like to see .DS_Store files, download and use TotalFinder which has a very easy method for viewing hidden files. There are other methods involving Terminal, but TotalFinder makes it easy (it's a preference and even has a keyboard shortcut!).
Step 2) Navigate to your repo using Terminal (Applications > Utilities > Terminal). This first command will remove any and all .DS_Store files from your repo. Simply enter:
Repo For Mac Os X 10.7
Step 3) Now we will create a global exclusion list (you can skip this step if you already have one set up). To do this, enter the command:
Repo For Mac Os X 10.13
Step 4) Now, we must add the pesky .DS_Store file to our newly created global exclusion list, named .gitignore (assuming you don't want any .DS_Store files in any repos that you may own). To do this, simply use this command:
This will add an entry to your .gitignore file that tells your git repo to ignore any file called .DS_Store. This is exactly what we want.
Commit these changes and push to your repo. To our surprise, all .DS_Store files have been removed! Congratulations! Now our repos are clean, free from clutter, and more professional.
Also, if you often navigate through Finder with hidden files on, I would recommend the tool called Asepsis a product of BinaryAge. Asepsis redirects the creation of .DS_Store files to a special folder that you seldom interact with. All the properties of folders are still retained, they are just placed in a different, well-hidden directory.

Homebrew installs the stuff you need that Apple (or your Linux system) didn’t.- Homebrew installs packages to their own directory and then symlinks their files into
/usr/local
. - Homebrew won’t install files outside its prefix and you can place a Homebrew installation wherever you like.
- It's all Git and Ruby underneath, so hack away with the knowledge that you can easily revert your modifications and merge upstream updates.
- Homebrew complements macOS (or your Linux system). Install your RubyGems with
gem
and their dependencies withbrew
. - 'To install, drag this icon...' no more.
