Is there a realistic chance that anyone working on Guix will ever
commit this to upstream?  Note that you can set up a global gitignore,
e.g. under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/git/ignore on Linux distros such as Guix
System.

Cheers

I hope so!

Pardon my lack of clarity.  By "this" I meant a file that's exclusively
produced by a proprietary operating system for no good reason (the
.DS_Store).  I don't think any of our committers run a risk of
accidentally pushing it, do they?

These files can clutter up "git status".  And they can be accidentally
committed by people without push access (e.g. with "git add .").

Can be useful if someone wants to port Guix to Apple systems -- a huge
effort I'd think, but why not?  Or if someone edits Guix on an Apple
system (maybe documentation, which doesn't require actually building
Guix) and pulls it from a VM to test it inside the VM (writing
modifications outside the VM, running the result inside).

Greetings,
Maxime.

Yeah, that’s exactly what I do here. I run headless VM on an ARM Mac as it provides better performance than raspberry pi that I develop for.
