and thank you for your reply! I tried this enclosing the * in both ''
and "", neither seems to work? Here's the output from my test:

[C:\atest\dicegame\somedir]svn status
? foo.txt
? blah.java

[C:\atest\dicegame\somedir]svn propset svn:ignore "*" .
svn: warning: 'blah.java' is not under version control
svn: warning: 'foo.txt' is not under version control
property 'svn:ignore' set on '.'

[C:\atest\dicegame\somedir]svn status
  M .
? foo.txt
? blah.java

[C:\atest\dicegame\somedir]svn propget svn:ignore ../somedir
.svn

[C:\atest\dicegame\somedir]svn revert ../somedir
Reverted '..\somedir'

[C:\atest\dicegame\somedir]svn status
? foo.txt
? blah.java

[C:\atest\dicegame\somedir]svn propset svn:ignore '*' .
property 'svn:ignore' set on '.'

[C:\atest\dicegame\somedir]svn propget svn:ignore ../somedir
'*'

[C:\atest\dicegame\somedir]svn status
  M .
? foo.txt
? blah.java

Any ideas?
