John,

In your config file uncomment the miscellany section and add the file
names to be ignored. Here are the lines from my config file. Maybe that
would work.

[miscellany]
### Set global-ignores to a set of whitespace-delimited globs
### which Subversion will ignore in its 'status' output.
global-ignores = *.o *.lo *.la #*# .*.rej *.rej .*~ *~ .#* .DS_Store
*.tar.* .?*

hth,

-Martin
