David thank you,

that makes a lot of sense.. I will investigate possible workarounds...
If you (or anyone else) would be so kind, I have another related question..
What do the numbers by K and V mean?

because now I could issue a command with something else instead of a "*" and then go edit dir-props manually.. the only problem is that the numbers are changing and I'm not sure what they mean..

thank you!

Hi,

I noticed a pretty serious issue with SVN client. I'm 100% sure that the
behaviour I am experiencing on Vista is not normal. I'm using 1.4.5 and
didn't have the same problems on XP or Ubuntu.

D:\project>svn ps svn:ignore "*" log
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'app'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'components'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'config'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'db'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'doc'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'lib'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'log'
property 'svn:ignore' set on 'public'
svn: Cannot set 'svn:ignore' on a file ('Rakefile')

Svn is setting ignore on all(?) folders.. and it really is (I checked
dir-props-base for listed folders).

If I try to do that:

D:\project>cd log
D:\project\log>svn ps svn:ignore "*" .
property 'svn:ignore' set on '.'

log\.svn\dir-prop-base looks like this:

K 10
svn:ignore
V 5
.svn

END

So even this doesn't work... I was expecting a "*" instead of ".svn". As
a matter of fact in first attemp when it was setting svn:ignore all over
the place, in every dir-prop-base I noticed ".svn" as well...

It seems there are two problems at once.

I hope someone can confirm this. Thank you very much!
    

My guess (and I have basically no windows experience): your shell is
expanding "*" and turning that into the command

$ svn ps svn:ignore .svn app components config db doc lib log public
Rakefile (...) log
