Ok, say in some folder you've got some host-specific file called
"hostfile". What you do is:
1. SVN Move "hostfile" to "hostfile.tmpl" (for "template")
2. add "hostfile" to the svn:ignore list for that folder
3. on each host, use the normal non-SVN copy to copy hostfile.tmpl to
hostfile
4. you will now be able to edit hostfile to your heart's content without
it coming up in the commit dialog or automatically getting changes from
source control.
5. when you update the folder, any changes made externally will appear
in the hostfile.tmpl file. If you want those included in your
host-specific hostfile, then you'll need to manually merge them (or
recopy the file and make your host-specific changes again).
