Diane DeMers Chen 0a858bf512 Add note about using keep_local_envs_in_vcs (#1735)
* Add note about using keep_local_envs_in_vcs

As a newbie, I wasn't sure about `keep_local_envs_in_vcs`, so I said yes, and when CC was building, it gave me the message: 
"[INFO]: .env(s) are only utilized when Docker Compose and/or Heroku support is enabled so keeping them does not make sense given your current setup." 
Seems like it could go in this documentation, and make things easier for newbies.

* Add me to CONTRIBUTORS.RST
