If you've set the "global-ignores" pattern in the svn config file:

  C:\Documents and Settings\YouUserName\Application
Data\Subversion\config

to anything at all, the ignore pattern is TSVN dialogs will not be used.

I found this after much frustration. It would be really nice if there
was a warning that popped up in TSVN saying something like:

  "TSVN Ignore Pattern won't work because
   global-ignore pattern set in svn config file"

when you tried to set an ignore pattern in TSVN.

Anyway, for me, after getting commenting out the "global-ignores" lines
in the config file, the TSVN ignore patterns all worked as expected
(i.e. the files weren't shown in commit/add dialogs).

Note that if you've already submitted some files that now correspond to
the TSVN pattern, these already committed files WON'T be ignored, just
new files/dirs.

Anyway, something to check ...

Cheers
Giovanni
