RE: Re: Exclude Files from commit

Someone gave me advice in the past on how to deal with this in the
command-line environment.

- request a list of all files who have been modified
  svn status | grep ^M
- pipe it to a cut so that you only get the filenames
  | cut -c 8-
- redirect it to a file for textual editing
> out.txt
- edit the file, removing lines that you don't want submitted
- perform a checkin using the --file argument. This will checkin to
subversion only the files who's paths and names are in the file

Synopsis:
- svn status | grep ^M | cut -c 8- > out.txt
- [edit out.txt, removing the lines for files not to be checked in]
- svn ci --file out.txt

This should give you the same functionality as TortousSVN. In actual
fact, now that I think about it, you could even write a script that does
this, and then goes and looks in an 'exclude' file that you've setup,
and removes files that are in this excludes file.

The power of scripting !!!

Hope this helps
