Subversion's ignores lists should only contain single path components,
as the ignore algorithm is only applied to the immediate children of
the directory on which the svn:ignore property is set. So, to ignore
.../libraries/foo, you need to add 'foo' to the svn:ignore property
set on the ".../libraries" directory.
