Tell Git to ignore .desktop files globally These files are all generated by the build, with the exception of the template.desktop file, so: * Have Git ignore all *.desktop files. * Rename template.desktop to template.desktop.in to avoid a clash with this new ignore rule. * Remove the checked-in image-crop.desktop file, which is built anyway.
