RE: Svn:ignore property and subfolders

You can specify default properties in your subversion config (client side) which gets added when you svn add your files. I don't know of a recursive way to set properties with only svn. With linux, you would use something like:

find . -type d --exec svn ps svn:ignore -F ~/yourignorefile {} \;

Where your ignore file is a carriage return seperated list of values which has to be ignored.

Hth,

ps. I will answer your question about work in the netherlands tomorrow. Oh, and Denmark doesn't neighbour our country. Germany is between. ;)

Subject: Svn:ignore property and subfolders
 
My experiementation tells me that I cannot specify an ignore property at
a root folder that is effective for all subfolders. Am I correct, or
merely failing to define the proper RegEx?
 
I want to define "svn:ignore" on "/MyProject", such that the files and
folders will be excluded for everything below that folder without
setting a property on every subfolder. Thus, "*.user" would be ignored
everywhere, not just in "/MyProject".
