In this case I want to ignore the files iOS uses, and in particular this file
.DS_Store I created a .gitignore file as such
touch .gitignore and put in a single line
/.DS_Store I push to a bare repo which has a hook to checkout to a full repo.
The file keeps showing up in my full repo.

DS_Store file in your directories. It's not a big issue, but often you need to exclude these files explicitly in your . gitignore file, to prevent any unnecessary files in your commit. You may want to ignore this file globally, so next time you don't need to add it to your project's ignore list.
gitignore file is usually placed in the root directory of a project. You can also create a global . gitignore file and any entries in that file will be ignored in all of your Git repositories. To create a local .
