Repo keeps adding .DS_Store files as apk

1

I am running a repository on my Mac and using the rsync feature to push it to my server. .DS_Store are annoying MacOS metadata files that keep reappearing as apps in my repository. I’m fairly new to Mac, is there a fix for this problem?

rsync can exclude .DS_Store files, right?

Can’t you just delete the .DS_Store files? If not, there does seem some ways to disable their creation. I did a quick internet search, but I don’t use macOS.

I think the issue is that they are being synced. In MacOS you hardly see them (like dot-files in Linux)

So if they are deleted locally, then they won’t be synced
