Add desktop.ini to default .gitignore
See original GitHub issueIs this a bug report?
No
I just noticed that the default .gitignore includes the .DS_Store stuff that MacOS creates but doesn’t include Thumbs.db or desktop.ini. I like to customize my icons and this makes Windows create the desktop.ini file.
It’s a very very minor thing - I can make a PR for this if it’s okay.

IMO, OS-related, IDE-related files must be handled by the end users, so create
~/.gitignoreand put all of your stuff there. Example of mine:This issue has been automatically closed because it has not had any recent activity. If you have a question or comment, please open a new issue.
