easy way to delete file from repository but leave file where it is?

Hi,

   Subversion is awesome!

   Here is my question:
   When I do an import sometimes I have files I want in those
directories, but not under source control....such as IDE related
files.

   Is there an easy way to delete a file from the repository but leave
the file where it is in the directory?

Example: Say the file I want out of version control but still in the
dir is fun.txt

I could do this -
copy fun.txt fun.txt.bak
svn delete fun.txt
svn commit -m "removing fun.txt from Subversion"
mv fun.txt.bak fun.txt

Is there an easier way?

thanks!
Brendan
