<li>It known as Desktop Services Store and it holds meta information about your folder’s thumbnails, settings, etc.</li>
</ul>
Why?
<ul>
<li>These files are created any time you navigate to a file or folder from the Finder on a Mac.</li>
</ul>
How to get rid of it?
<ul>
<li>Probably you already know the solution, .gitignore</li>
</ul>
