I raised this issue and the discord and got feedback from @mateuszwojtczak
My project runs security scans on our Flutter app binaries and we had a critical violation due to the file:
ios/.symlinks/patrol/example/ios/Runner/GoogleService-Info.plist
The security scan detected sensitive information (in this case it thought it was a credit card #) in this file, and is probably related to the API key or GCM_SENDER_ID values.
GoogleService-Info.plist is a Firebase configuration file that contains secrets/API keys. This file is usually not version controlled to keep these values private. Due to this, I don't think this file belongs here, and having this present could also cause the same security violation for others using Patrol that also scan their app(s).
