Even better, you should TortoiseSVN->Delete the whole bin folder, then add "bin"
to the svn:ignore property of the project folder. The easiest way to do that is
to re-run your build process, which will re-create the bin folder, then right
click on it and "Add to ignore list".

Ignoring the folder means that the commit dialog will populate faster. If you
ignore "*" in the bin folder, subversion will get every file name individually
and check whether it matches the ignore pattern. Ignoring the folder is just one
check.
