Title: Local configuration files should not be version controlled

It is nice to have an example `marc_local.properties` file but the file should not be maintained in the version controlled source code because merge conflicts can occur when pulling in changes. Many applications, like wordpress and PhpMyAdmin, provide a "sample" file that is updated regularly but do not keep the actual config file in version control so that upgrades are easier.
