There are two ways to ignore files, described here:

Sounds like you are trying the 2nd way, which is to set the svn:ignore
property on items in the repository. The key thing to realize here is that
you must set the property on the directory containing the files you want to
ignore. You set the property to a list of file patterns you want to be
ignored in that directory.
