Consider removing Pods folder from git repo #56
Description
The main reason to keep the Pods folder checked in is for easier contributions from the community by not needing them to run any CocoaPods commands to build and run the project. However, this has led to the size of the repo at checkout to be very large (~= 200mb) and depending on internet speed can take ~= 5 minutes to clone. This length of time is also incurred when cloning for CocoaPods in projects that depend on this project. I wanted to bring this up so we can evaluate the pros and cons to both and decide what the right decision is for the project.
