Your .gitignore should be

**/.DS_Store

The **/ prefix is a pattern that means to match in all directories. https://git-scm.com/docs/gitignore#_pattern_format

Sorry for the late reply, but I'm sure that leaving out **/ does the exact same thing?

Leaving that out means it'll only match the .DS_Store found at the project root.

Leaving that out means it'll only match the .DS_Store found at the project root.

Then what about this?

Maybe the Github app handles the gitignore differently than cli git.
