Then I suppose configurations.php was already in the repository;
svn:ignore is only for ignoring files that are not in the repository.
You may want to consider not having configurations.php in the
repository; instead, put a template in the repository called
configurations.php.tmpl that users can copy to an unversioned file
configurations.php and modify, and then you svn:ignore
configurations.php so that it doesn't get committed to the
repository. See:
