til / Delete DS_Store files inside folder

macOS creates .DS_Store files to keep track of custom attributes, such as folder view options, of its containing folder. These files are usually added to .gitignore because it’s not a file that we want to version control. But, you might still have a bunch of them littering up your folders. Using the following command, we can remove all of them, recursively, in the current directory.

find . -name '.DS_Store' -type f -delete

And here’s what the command does:

• find . - Find inside the current directory (.)
• -name '.DS_Store' - Name of the file to search for
• -type f - Search for a regular file
• -delete - Delete any files found
