If you set the svn:ignore property on the parent folder, then that
folder is "modified". On the next commit, Subversion compares the last
committed revision of that folder with the HEAD revision in the
repository, and they don't match anymore. Then you have to update your
working copy so that the folders will get the HEAD revision too.
As soon as both repository and modified folders have the same revision,
you can commit.
