setting keywords prop automatically via .subversion/config file?

Hi,

I want every file I add to any repository to have the keywords prop
automatically set. From the svnbook at red-bean, I thought that the
following subversion config entries would do that:

      [msouth@rusr201d msouth]$ grep -v "^#" ~/.subversion/config

      [miscellany]
      enable-auto-props = yes

      [auto-props]
      * = svn:keywords "Author Date Id Rev URL"

      [msouth@rusr201d scratch]$ cat > test_file
      $Id$
      [msouth@rusr201d scratch]$

      [msouth@rusr201d scratch]$ cat test_file
      $Id$
      [msouth@rusr201d scratch]$ svn add test_file
      A test_file
      [msouth@rusr201d scratch]$ svn commit test_file
      Adding test_file
      Transmitting file data .
      Committed revision 5.
      [msouth@rusr201d scratch]$ cat test_file
      $Id$

As you can see from the last "cat" command, $Id$ is still not expanded
in test_file. What I thought I was doing with my .subversion/config was
to turn on auto-props with the "enable-auto-props = yes" line, and then
under the [auto-props] section, set the svn:keywords property to "Author
Date Id Rev URL" for every file matching "*". This does not seem to be
what happens. Am I missing something? I've tried to read the docs and
archives of the list, but I don't see anything relevant.

Another thing I've noticed after some experimentation is that, after I
"svn add" the file, if I do an "svn proplist" on it, it comes back with
this:

Properties on 'test_file3':
   svn:keywords "Author Date Id Rev URL"

If I then do 'svn propset svn:keywords "Author Date Id Rev URL"
test_file3', two things happen--one, keyword expansion starts working,
and two, "svn proplist" gives me:

Properties on 'test_file3':
   svn:keywords
   svn:keywords "Author Date Id Rev URL"

Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks,

mike
