With what type of command. When posting an error message, it is good if you
can post a transcript of the last few commands leading up to the error.

As a quick guess, were trying to either import or checkout. You need to
specify the repository path with a file:///path/to/repos/ style URL. The
file:// part is actually necessary in the code.

There is an svn:ignore property which can be set on directories. The value of
the property should be a newline separated list of patterns to ignore.

For example:
$ vi props # Set patterns here.
$ svn propset svn:ignore -F props # Read value from file.
$ svn commit

or

$ svn propset svn:ignore "somepattern to be ignored"
$ svn commit
