Re: should .subversion/config hint to ignore .DS_Store?

The file stores information for the Finder to use, such as window
position, view, etc. I'd say put them in global-ignore; they're not
anything you would want or care to replicate. Plus, the Finder
overwrites them at will, so it's not exactly useful to put in a
repository.
