Re: output of SVN status, question mark lines

Thanks for the response Ryan, here is some more info captured from my terminal session.  Note that since the other day I've created mushrooms.header which I've forgotten to svn add, so I want that to appear as a ? line in the output.  The others I don't.  Also I had been running a 2005 build of svn that is installed systemwide, and I upgraded to the latest which I installed locally in order to try and fix this problem, but it didn't help.

It should have the effect you want. Could you show us exactly what you typed,
and perhaps exactly what "svn proplist -v ." says now?

Maybe someone has put .o in a global exclusion list when setting up svn, I'm
not sure. How can I locally suppress specific files in a directory?

Yes, .o files are globally ignored by default. See the global-ignores section
of your Subversion config file (e.g. on Linux in ~/.subversion/config).
