Delete .DS_Store files

OSX Finder automatically creates DS_Store files when you browse to a directory. The DS_Store file contains information about custom attributes in a folder like the position of icons or the choice of a background image. Uploading it with other files opens the risk of outside users to obtain information about your computer or just create unneeded clutter

Often times when I want to FTP upload a directory it will have a .DS_Store file at the root of each folder.
I of course don’t want this uploaded with my FTP transfer.
Execute this command in the folder you want to delete all .DS_Store files from

sudo find . -name ".DS_Store" -depth -exec rm {} \;
