Add "**/.DS_Store" to FileSet's default excludes list

           Summary: Add "**/.DS_Store" to FileSet's default excludes list
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Enhancement
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: ant-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: matt@thebishops.org


Please add the following to FileSet's default excludes list:

**/.DS_Store

On Mac OS X, this file is generated by the OS to keep track of Window information--their size, placement, sort order, etc.  It is irrelevant elsewhere, and on OS X it is recreated automatically when the Finder opens a directory without one.

The workaround is to include it in the excludes attribute, but this is a pain and easy to forget.

Thanks!
