Warning: There is an error in the book:
The default value of global-ignores was changed in svn 1.5 and
now includes *.so *.so.[0-9]* files,
but the one displayed in the book was not updated.

Your solution is to explicitly specify some value for the global-ignores setting
in the configuration file. Using an empty string disables the defaults:

global-ignores=
