Ouch! _I_ would vote for the previous version ;) Seriously, what's the common
case? I think people more often want to commit their changes to already
versioned files and not to add some new files.

I just added some folders to the ignore list but that's a bit messy because
a lot of these folders are 'intermediate' ones which are created by the CE
Platform Builder and some others have always to be there but not under
revision control. So there are some _huge_ 'svn:ignore's... :(
...and maybe sometime a file deep in the directory tree _will_ get versioned.
