Contributing: Google Services Info.plist file

[jake-ruth]

Hello, I am interested in contributing and trying to get the project up and running but it looks like I need the Google Services info plist file. How do I obtain it? I don't see anything in the readme etc. Thank you!

GoogleService-Info.plist is not required for a development build if the file reference is removed from the project and the Firebase Analytic code sections are wrapped with #if #endif.

#if DEBUG
print("ANALYTICS is disabled in development mode")
#else
FirebaseApp.configure()
…
#endif

The GoogleService-Info.plist file itself is not being distributed for open source use.

Would an alternative scheme for the project be of interest?

I'm interested in creating a Getting Started documentation section #74 so I'll be sure to include this workaround
