C:\Temp>svn propedit --editor-cmd=notepad.exe -m "Added a property"
svn:ignore file:///c:/temp/repos/my_dir
Set new value for property 'svn:ignore' on 'file:///C:/temp/repos/my_dir'
Committed revision 10.

instead. On my test repository there was no pre-existing property called
svn:ignore so it works for setting them too.
