RE: Re: Where is binary files should be placed?

What we normally do is create the project with Visual Studio and do an
initial build of the project from within VS. Then add the studio
project folder to your repo with TortoiseSVN, and make sure to de-select
the bin and object directories, as well as the .user file. So far so
good. Then add an svn:ignore property to the project folder to ignore
'bin obj *.user'. Now commit in the parent/solution folder, as you will
need to ensure you get the project correctly added to the .sln file.

This way you get your base project committed to your repo and you ensure
that everyone gets the right ignore pattern. I rarely rely on people
updating the client side config file to correctly ignore things. Far
better to put it on the folder in question and ensure everyone gets it
without having to do anything.

I think only things hard to create (e.g. source code that is manually
edited) should go into version
control. Everything else (compile/build output, generated docs etc.)
shouldn't be in the repository
at all.

Hope this helps,
