RE: Re: Global Ignore Pattern Issues

Aaron may have different issues then me, but as mentioned in a separate post, to answer directly the question...

A file pattern such as "*.bat" in the Tortoise global ignore pattern does not ignore *.bat files when doing a "check for modifications" (show unversioned files).
If that is added to the subversion configuration file global-ignores however, then it is ignored when doing a "check for modifications" (show unversioned files).

Also, this may or may not be Aaron's issue, but no matter what I do, either in Tortoise's or subversions, I can't get "check for modifications" to ignore any directory name/paths. Hence my whole C: drive is scanned for modifications which is 100's of Gb's too much.

You're not being caught by Subversion's case sensitivity are you? The pattern "bin" will not work for "Bin" or "BIN".

What does not get ignored?
