Re: Proposal: svn:temporary property

I wouldn't want to crash the party, but can't the files be generated in
another folder ?

For instance, in my Java projects, I have a src/ folder, and a build/
folder. My top-level project folder (trunk/ in most cases) has
svn:ignore set to "build tmp". This solves the problem rather nicely,
for me.

Bye !
